Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The complex of proteins and DNA in eukaryotic chromosomes is called chromatin. Histones are a type of protein found in chromatin, but the term "histone complex" is not commonly used. Histamine and chromatiD are not relevant to the composition of eukaryotic chromosomes. Centromere is a specific region of DNA within a chromosome, not the entire complex.
