DNA is condensed by a certain amount just on its own, just by its own interactions within the DNA molecule,..but whne proteins get involved it gets condensed 30000 fold
<span>what happens is that proteins called histones are like hockey pucks, and DNA wraps around it 1.5 times and then goes to another histone and wraps around that so that it looks like beads on a string (i hope that makes sense, its the only way to describe it) </span>
<span>these histones condense this DNA a lot, and when the histones get methylated then the DNA packs together even closer to get heterochromatin (VERY densely packed DNA)...the theory here is that DNA has a net negative charge due to the phosphate groups in the DNA backbone and doesnt allow the DNA to come together as closely as it could (like charges repel like charges), but when histones are methylated, the negative charge on the DNA is masked by the methyl groups and DNA can come together closer </span>
Not directly. Detectors can convert to a form that is visible to the human eye. Hope that helps
They always increase in numbers
Hi there!
As resources in a population become less available, the population:
C. Reaches carrying capacity
When resources in a population become less available, the population will not be able to continue growing even more because there would be enough resources, and so, it has reached its carrying capacity.
When the exponential phase of a logistic growth curve of a population ceases:
C. Population growth begins to slow down.
The population will continue to grow but will do so at a slower and steadier rate.
I hope that helps! :)
The human body comprises of more than 600 muscles differentiated in three classifications, and all are under the control of the nervous system. The activities like picking up a dropped pen or leaning over incorporate the combined effort of various muscle groups.
The alert mind relays this instruction to the central nervous system that conducts it in the form of electrical impulses. These are then mediated via the somatic segment of the peripheral nervous system to the nerves accountable for monitoring the essential muscles.
When the signals arrive, a chemical known as acetylcholine gets discharged from the nerve terminals, activating the membranes of muscle fibers and making them to contract. The receptors present in the muscles provide the brain with the instruction regarding the movement and position of the body, the brain monitors the contraction of skeletal muscles.
