Word components are used as word roots, prefixes and suffixes to relate medical terms to structure and function.

<h3>What is medical terminology? </h3>

Medical terminology is a standard set of words used by medical professionals for efficient communication among themselves and for efficient documentation.

It reduces errors that can be caused by poor communication ensuring that the entire staff can study a patient's previous documentation for early diagnosis and treatment.

Medical terminology can therefore be broken down into roots, prefixes and suffixes to avoid any error in treatment. In simple words, any mistake or misunderstanding by medical professionals can result in the loss of lives. That is why medical terminology is important.

Answer:

The electron microscope

Explanation:

<u>The microscope that would be best suited to study the inner structure of the chloroplast would be the electron microscope.</u>

<em>The electron microscope has a high magnifying property due to the fact that it uses a beam of accelerated electrons as a source of illumination, unlike the light microscope that uses visible light. While the light microscope might be enough to see the inner portion and the organelles of the cell, the tiny nature of the inner structure of the chloroplast means that the light microscope will not be able to view the details. A more powerful microscope like the electron microscope would be required.</em>

True or false? One possible way to alter chromatin structure such that genes could be transcribed would be to make histone prote
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The histones that are more positively charged, tight hardly to negatively charged DNA. So, enzymes, such as acetyltransferases, that reduce the positive charge of histones promote transcription.

Chromatin structure and its modifications can change the package of the DNA and consequently, alter the gene expression. The most common modifications of the chromatin are covalent modifications such as acetylation/deacetylation (by acetyltransferases and eacetylases), methylation (by methyltransferases), and phosphorylation (by kinases).  This is the way of gene expression regulation.

The effects of modifications are different, for example methylation promotes  condensation of the chromatin and as a consequence, prevents binding of transcription factors to the DNA (transcription is repressed).

Acetylation loosens the association between nucleosomes and DNA (because it neutralizes the positive charge of histones) and consequently promotes transcription. Deacetylation is a process opposite to acetylation.
