Chromosome Structure and Organization

The video explores the structure and function of chromosomes, starting with DNA's role in forming chromosomes through packaging with histones into nucleosomes. It connects Mendelian genetics to chromosome theory, explaining how genes are located on chromosomes. The video also covers non-coding DNA, telomeres, and their functions, as well as differences in sex chromosomes and X-linked genes. Finally, it delves into the detailed structure of chromosomes and introduces gene expression.

How do sex chromosomes differ between males and females?
