Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Chromosomes are rod-shaped structures found in the nucleus of a cell that contain genes. Ribosomes are the sites of protein synthesis and are not directly involved in genetic material storage. Genomes refer to the complete set of genetic material for an organism, not a physical structure. DNA is the genetic material itself, but it is packaged onto chromosomes in order to be organized and stored within the nucleus.
