The human Y chromosome is about 50 million base pairs long. One would expect to find 250,000 nucleosomes associated with this chromosome.

A nucleosome typically contains 200 base pairs. On dividing 50 million by 200, one would get 250,000 which would tell about the number of nucleosomes associated with the human Y chromosome.

A nucleosome is a segment of DNA that is wrapped around a core of proteins. A nucleosomes constitutes the repeating unit of a structure in nucleus known as chromatin (thread-like stained bodies present in nucleus).

The nucleosomes in chromatin appear as 'beads-on-string' when viewed under an electron microscope.

Why are there so many different shaped beaks in finches
Viktor [21]

Beaks changed as the birds developed different tastes.

Explanation:

Fruits, seeds, or insects picked from the ground or cacti have affected their evolution.  Long, pointed beaks made some of them more fit for picking seeds out of cactus fruits. Shorter, stouter beaks served best for eating seeds found on the ground.

A farmer is being troubled by coyotes eating his sheep. in an attempt to solve the problem, he kills a sheep and laces its body
Misha Larkins [42]
The farmer is attempting to apply the principle of conditioned taste aversions to accomplish his objectives. Conditioned taste aversion occurs when an animal associates the taste of a certain food with symptoms caused by a toxic, spoiled, or poisonous substance. Generally, taste aversion is developed after ingestion of food that causes nausea, sickness, or vomiting.Tate aversions is an important principle that help us better understand animals and people tend to form one pairing associations between a certain stimuli, unlike other classical conditioning examples, for it one eats a food and becomes ill, he or she is predisposed to avoid the substance.
