Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Largest to smallest ____
A
nucleotide, DNA, chromosome, nucleus, cell
B
DNA, chromosome, nucleus, cell, nucleotide
C
cell, nucleus, chromosome, DNA, nucleotide
D
nucleus, nucleotide, DNA, chromosome, cell
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The correct answer is: DNA/nucleotides, gene, chromosome, nucleus, cell.

Detailed explanation-2: -Final answer: Genome, Chromosome, Gene, and Nucleotide is the correct order of organization of genetic material from largest to smallest.

Detailed explanation-3: -A chromosome is much larger than a nucleotide. Many nucleotides make DNA which in turn coils to form a chromosome. The nucleus is much larger than chromosomes.

Detailed explanation-4: -The correct answer: According to the order from smallest to largest, the order will be: Nucleotide, Gene, DNA, Chromatin, Chromatid, Chromosome. The nucleotides are the monomeric units of nucleic acids which together form the polymeric structure of DNA.

Detailed explanation-5: -DNA is a very large molecule, made up of smaller units called nucleotides that are strung together in a row, making a DNA molecule thousands of times longer than it is wide. Each nucleotide has three parts: a sugar molecule, a phosphate molecule, and a structure called a nitrogenous base.
