Asexual reproduction is a form of reproduction in which the number of chromosomes or the fusion of gametes is not altered.

Being genetically identical to the parent is advantageous for organisms when the environment changes fast, and reproduction is needed.

A gamete (a reproductive cell with one set of chromosomes, like an egg or sperm) combines with another to form a zygote, eventually developing into an organism of cells with two sets of chromosomes. Sexual reproduction is a type of reproduction that involves this complex life cycle (diploid).

The advantages of sexual reproduction are numerous. Several instances include:

more genetic variation

immunity against contagious diseases

fewer genetic diseases

Evolutionary fitness has increased

Which statements about the modification of chromatin structure in eukaryotes are true? Select all that apply. View Available Hin
Kay [80]

The correct answers are:  

  • Methylation of histone tails in chromatin can promote condensation of the chromatin.
  • DNA is not transcribed when chromatin is packaged tightly in a condensed form.
  • Acetylation of histone tails is a reversible process.
  • Some forms of chromatin modification can be passed on to future generations of cells.  
  • Acetylation of histone tails in chromatin allows access to DNA for transcription.

Histone modifications are post-translational modifications of histone protein that can affect gene expression by altering chromatin structure or recruiting histone modifiers.The most common modifications are methylation, phosphorylation, acetylation and ubiquitylation. All of them affect the binding affinity between histones and DNA and thus loosening (gene activation) or tightening (gene repression) the condensed DNA.

Histone methylation is a transfer of methyl group by histone methyltransferases to lysine or arginine amino acid of protein. Effect of methylation depends on the type of protein that is modified. Demethylation is the reverse process.

Histone acetylation is the process of adding of an acetyl group(by  histone acetyltransferases) to histone proteins and it can also activate or inhibit the gene expression. Deacetilation is reverse process.

Anyone help me with this question plz
wolverine [178]

Hey again,

The answer you are looking for is B).

Just as proteins consist of long chains of amino acids, DNA and RNA consists of nucleic acid chains called nucleotide's. Nucleotide's are composed of three units: base, sugar (monosaccharide) and phosphate. Bases are found in both DNA and RNA. As seen below, they are adenine, cytosine, guanine, thymine, and uracil.

Hope this helps!!!!!!
