why dna strands in a cell are coiled??????

OpenStudy (anonymous):

To form the characteristic double helix

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The strands are called chromatids

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but why they form double i mean it can be remain prallel so it will be more easy in replication also

OpenStudy (anonymous):

DNA is coiled tightly into chromosomes during mitosis in order for them to be able to split easily into the two new daughter cells.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i agree with above but after mitosis why dont it came to parallel each other why they remain coil becaue at the time of replication Rna polymerase have to work hard to seperate them if it will be parallel then it will be easy for replicate dont you think
