The combination of DNA and proteins is called nucleosomes.

The combination of DNA and proteins in chromosomes is called nucleosomes. Nucleosomes are the basic repeating units of chromatin, which is the complex of DNA and proteins found in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. Each nucleosome consists of DNA wrapped around a spool-like structure composed of histone proteins. Therefore, the correct answer is nucleosomes.
