Biology

ratelena [41]3 years ago

Well the definition in an actual dictionary or scientific book is quite confusing, so to put it simply:
A chromosome is a DNA molecule with part or all of the genetic material of an organism.

If that makes any sense.
That’s really as simple as I know it.
Chromosomes are complex, so a simple definition doesn’t come easy.
Happy to help!

In plants, fruits are structures that form as a result of fertilization, which makes ovules become seeds and flowers maturate to become fruits.
