Chromatin, which consists of DNA complexed to proteins, is the material that makes up eukaryotic chromosomes. The most abundant of these proteins are the five types of positively charged histone proteins: H1, H2A, H2B, H3, and H4.

C) They would no longer be attracted to each other.
D) They would cause supercoiling of the DNA.
