B	Chromatin
C	Organelle
D	Chromsome

Detailed explanation-1: -The thread-like structure located inside the nucleus of cells of plants and animals is called a chromosome. The term chromosome was first coined by German anatomist Henrich Wilhelm Waldeyer in 1888. Each chromosome is composed of DNA wrapped tightly by proteins called histones.

Detailed explanation-2: -chromosome, the microscopic threadlike part of the cell that carries hereditary information in the form of genes.

Detailed explanation-3: -Chromosomes are thread-like structures located inside the nucleus of animal and plant cells. Each chromosome is made of protein and a single molecule of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Passed from parents to offspring, DNA contains the specific instructions that make each type of living creature unique.
