Understand that eukaryotic chromosomes have specialized structures at their ends to protect them from degradation.
Recognize that these structures are composed of repetitive DNA sequences.
Recall that these repetitive sequences are not involved in coding for proteins but serve a protective function.
Identify that these protective, repetitive sequences at the ends of chromosomes are called 'telomeres'.
Differentiate telomeres from other DNA sequences such as centromeres, introns, and exons, which have different functions and locations within the genome.
