Answer:

Chromosome is the compact form of genetic material(DNA) present in the nucleus of a cell. These chromosomes are a combination of proteins and DNA. These chromosomes carry our hereditary material in the form of genes.

Each chromosomes carry many genes which are transferred to the next generation. Each chromosome divides into the S- phase and they become compact during the mitosis phase.
