Study Notes

DNA Length

The total length of DNA in a single human cell is approximately 2 meters.
The DNA must be tightly packaged within the cell nucleus.

DNA Organization

The DNA is highly organized, utilizing a process called supercoiling.
Supercoiling allows for compact packaging within the cell nucleus.
The tight packaging facilitates regulation of gene expression.

DNA Structure

The long length of DNA in a single human cell highlights the organization and functionality of the cell nucleus.
The cell nucleus serves as a compartment for the organized storage and regulation of cellular DNA.
