A stylized depiction of a eukaryotic chromosome shows an offset centromere producing unequal short (p) and long (q) arms, consistent with a submetacentric configuration. The structure represents condensed chromatin, a DNA–protein complex composed of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) wrapped around histones within the nucleus. In cytogenetics and cell biology, this chromosome acts as a unit of inheritance and ensures accurate segregation of genetic material during mitosis and meiosis as part of the cellular genome.
