Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In a non-dividing cell the genetic material is present in the form of a thread-like structure called chromatin. During cell division, the chromatin is condensed to form a chromosome which acts as the rod-shaped structure. More items

Detailed explanation-2: -mitochondria – Rod-shaped cell structures that convert energy in food molecules to energy the cell can use to carry out its functions.

Detailed explanation-3: -At the onset of mitosis, the nuclear envelope breaks down and chromatin is progressively converted into a discrete set of rod-shaped structures known as metaphase chromosomes (Fig.

Detailed explanation-4: -DNA, found in the nucleus of plant and animal cells, is organized into structures called chromosomes. Cell biologists in the nineteenth century saw the rod shaped structures within cell nuclei and named the structures “chromosomes” because of the way they absorb colored stain.
