Hi! In the first place sorry for the basic question. Chromatin is located in the nucleus in ONE molecule of specific length, am I right? While chromosomes formining, the chromatin is divided into specific parts (what exactly is that process?) which are those chromosomes?
this question is unrelated to bioinformatics. Ask https://biology.stackexchange.com/
Yarn is to a sweater as a chromosome is to chromatin. One describes a molecule of DNA, the other describes states of the molecule. You can google around, use wikipedia, or any basic molecular biology text to quickly get a description of these.
