Structure Of Submetacentric Chromosome Cartoon Vector

Submetacentric chromosomes are a type of chromosome found in eukaryotic organisms, including humans. Chromosomes are thread-like structures made of DNA and proteins, and they carry genetic information in the form of genes. Submetacentric chromosomes have a centromere that is located closer to one end than to the other, causing the chromosome to have two arms of unequal length. When a chromosome has arms of unequal length, it typically forms an "L" shape when condensed during cell division. In contrast, metacentric chromosomes have a centromere located exactly in the middle, resulting in two arms of equal length. Telocentric chromosomes have their centromere located at one end, resulting in a single chromosome arm.
