DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is known to be the genetic material for almost all organisms. It is tightly packed within the nucleus of every cell and wraps around the unique proteins known as histone. These histones form the loops of DNA called nucleosomes.

Further Explanation:

The genetic information is known to be packaged in 23 sets of chromosomes. In these, histones which are the proteins that aid the molecule of DNA to be very tightly packed in added and also aids in maintaining the double-helical structure of the DNA.

The thread-like structure provided in the diagram is known as chromosome. Chromosomes are found in the nucleus and it is composed up of protein as well as single molecule of DNA. The bunch like structures present is known as nucleosomes that are considered to be the basic unit of the DNA packaging.

The histone units make the structural units of the nucleosome and these units and bounded in the tight helical fiber. Finally, is the structure of DNA, which is known to be the genetic material.

I assume this photo has the labels you are talking about.

DNA double helix consists of two strands that wind around each other with their nucleotides liked.-> it's the structure number 5
nucleosome- it's a segment of DNA wound in sequence around eight histones (proteins)- number 2
Histone- proteins with DNA around them, forming the nucleosome- number 4
Tight helical fiber- chromatin coiled very tightly- 3
Cromosome- chromatin condensed even tighter forming a X shape.- 1

frosja888 [35]

Earth’s atmosphere had little to no oxygen. It was composed of carbon dioxide, water vapor, and nitrogen, with lesser amounts of carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide, and hydrogen cyanide. Because of these gases in the atmosphere, the sky was probably pinkish-orange. Meaning once earth obtained more oxygen the sky turned blue.

Answer:

Mitochondria are membrane-bound cell organelles (mitochondrion, singular) that generate most of the chemical energy needed to power the cell's biochemical reactions. Chemical energy produced by the mitochondria is stored in a small molecule called adenosine triphosphate
