Answer:

  1. Chromosomes are composed of highly condensed chromatin.
  2. A chromosome contains highly condensed DNA.
  3. The complex of DNA and proteins present in chromosomes is called chromatin.
  4. DNA wraps around special proteins called histones.

Explanation:

1.

Chromosomes are highly condensed form of genetic material composed of DNA and proteins. In a normal, resting cell, chromosomes are present in the form of chromatin. They are only visible during cell division when the DNA is supercoiled. Prokaryotic organisms only possess a single chromosome, whereas, the number varies in multicellular organisms. Humans have 46 chromosomes arranged in two sets of 23 each. Each parent contributes one set to its offspring. This means that two copies of each chromosome are present in an individual. The two copies are called sister chromatids and are joined together by cohesin proteins at a point called the centromere.

2.

Each chromosome contains DNA and a specific number of genes in their corresponding loci (location of a gene on chromosome). A chromosome is the highly condensed form of chromatin. It contains DNA wrapped around special proteins called histones.

3.

Chromation is the decondensed form of chromosomes that contains a complex of DNA and histone proteins. Chromatin is visible in a normal, non-dividing cell.

4.

During the S-phase of cell division, DNA that exists in the form of chromatin condenses into chromosomes. This takes place when DNA double helix wraps around proteins called histones. This forms a bead shaped DNA-histone complex known as the nucleosome. DNA wraps twice around each histone that aids in producing a super-coiling and condensing the chromatin. Histones also give chromosomes their characteristic structure.

____________ refers to the deficient production of all cellular elements of the blood.
mojhsa [17]

Pancytopenia refers to the deficient production of all cellular elements of the blood. So, the correct option is (c).

A person with pancytopenia has too few platelets, white blood cells, and red blood cells in their body. A few autoimmune, bone marrow, or genetic conditions can result in pancytopenia. Infection, poor nutrition, pregnancy, cancer treatment (such as chemotherapy or radiation therapy), or exposure to specific poisons, chemicals, or medications are other potential causes.

Pancytopenia is a dangerous condition that should not be disregarded. Without treatment, it can result in symptoms that are life-threatening and have an impact on the entire body, like as oxygen shortage and immune system issues.

alexdok [17]

Hello. You forgot to add the diagram.

The diagram is attached below.

Answer:

1. examination of homologous fossilized structures of primitive horses

Explanation:

As you can see in the diagram, to show the stages of the development of the modern horse, a comparison is made between the forelimb structure and the molar tooth of these horses (related to the adult form). These two factors of comparison establish the representation of fossilized homologous structures of primitive horses.

As you may already know, homologous structures are different body structures from different animals that have a strong similarity (because they are inherited from a common ancestor). When these animals die and these structures are conserved, we can say that they have been fossilized.

As the forelimb structure and the molar tooth of the horses shown in the diagram are homologous structures that were fossilized, we can say that option 1 is the correct answer to your question.
