Chromosome

A long, continuous strand of DNA molecule is known as a chromosome. Chromosomes are made up of long DNA strands wrapped tightly around histone protein.

Due to the phosphate group present in the sugar-phosphate backbone of DNA that makes it negatively charged. Therefore, histones bind with DNA very tightly. Telomeres are regions of chromosomes that stabilize the end of chromosomes but lack active genes.
