Answer:
C) Nucleic Acid
D) Capsid
Explanation:
A virus is structure that is dependent on a living host to replicate itself. Viruses are majorly pathogenic in nature and have a structure that is made up of two parts namely: nucleic acid and capsid.
The nucleic acid, which can either be RNA or DNA holds the genetic information of the virus while the capsid is a protein coat that enclosed and protects the virus' genetic material. The capsid is also used during the infection life cycle of a virus where it helps the virus to attach to receptor cells on the host's cell membrane.
The correct answer would be “All of the Above”
Answer:
This is through the process of methylation and phosphorylation of histones tails.
Explanation:
The addition of a methyl group to the amino acid of the histones of the nucleosomes that compacted DNA in the nucleus is called mehtylation, while the addtion of phodpahte is phosphorylation
Its effects on gene expression depends on the number of <u> methyl groups, and type of amino acid that methylated. During transcription. </u>
<u />
The DNA double strands are compacted and therefore hidden from transcription factors and enzymes of transcription by the hitones tails of the neuclosomes, Methylation weaken the binding bonds between the tails and DNA structure ; thereby aiding the uncoiling of DNA from the tails.(nucleosomes).This chemical reaction aided DNA strands exposure to transcription factors and enzymes, for initiation of transcription. This explains the dyanmic activity of methylation
Futhermore phophorylation also favours unwrapping of DNA, by imitating modifying enzymes e.g H3Y41E and H3T45E and convert it to→→ H3Y41phopspahte to aid DNA unwrapping and accessibility to transcription factors and RNA polymerase Enzymes,
I guess ribosomes are not present in leaf cells
