Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When cells are not dividing, chromosomes uncoil and form a tangle of fine fibers known as chromatin. Chromatin consists of DNA, RNA, and proteins that make up the genetic material in the nucleus of a cell. Nucleosomes, centromeres, chromatids, and nucleoli are all structures found within or associated with chromosomes, but they are not the correct answer as they are not formed when chromosomes uncoil in non-dividing cells.
