In non-dividing phase nucleus contains _ and soluble sap called _ respectively.

Correct answer: A. Chromatin network, nucleoplasm

  • A. Chromatin network, nucleoplasm
  • B. Chromosomes, nucleoplasm
  • C. Nucleoplasm, chromatin network
  • D. Chromatin network, cytoplasm

Explanation

In non-dividing cell (interphase) DNA of chromosomes have been decondensed and uncoiled. In this form it is called chromatin network. However, during cell division through recondensation and recoiling this chromatin network is converted into discrete structures called chromosomes. Chromatin network is suspended in a fluid substance called nucleoplasm.
