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.

rjkz [21]

The professional that most likely will be called in to help seismologist.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

When an underwater earthquake has just been recorded in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, the seismologists will be called to determine if the effects of this earthquake and whether or not it will cause tsunamis off the coast of Hawaii.

Seismology is the study of earthquakes, the escalation of waves and the effects they might have. A seismologist is a scientist who is concerned with these studies. They make use of seismographs and other relevant tools to gather essential data which helps in reading the planetary movements and understanding them better. The study does not always predict an earthquake but it helps in predicting the possibility of tsunamis. Seismology enabled the development of tsunami warning systems.
