The experiments conducted on the tephritid fly and jumping spider by Greene and colleagues is to get an understanding of the relationship existing between predator and prey.

In the experiment, they tested whether the display of the tephritid fly got disturbed and mimicked the jumping spiders' appearance as a way to deter the attack. It is found that, with the exposure of the tephritid fly to the jumping spider, the wings of the fly were kept in a perpendicular position to its body, and waving in an up and down direction is observed. Moreover, the dark bandings also appeared in the wings.

Hence, these are the changes that happened with the fly enable them to mimic the appearance of jumping spiders and help them to survive.

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.
