Which of the following are features of nucleosomes? A nucleosome contains approximately 20 base pairs of DNA. The DNA in a nucle

osome is wound around eight histone proteins. Between nucleosomes is a stretch of DNA called "linker DNA". A nucleosome contains 8 different types of histones. In a nucleosome, DNA is wrapped 4 times around the histone core. H1 seals off where DNA enters and leaves the nucleosome. Nucleosomes contribute to DNA packing. Nucleosomes in chromatin are arranged in straight, side-by-side chains. Nucleosomes are about 10000 Angstroms in diameter. Histones have tails that stick out and can be modified, affecting DNA expression.

Answer:

The correct answers are "The DNA in a nucleosome is wound around eight histone proteins", "Between nucleosomes is a stretch of DNA called "linker DNA", "H1 seals off where DNA enters and leaves the nucleosome", "Nucleosomes contribute to DNA packing", and "Histones have tails that stick out and can be modified, affecting DNA expression".

Explanation:

Nucleosomes are comprised of DNA and histones that in conjunction form structural units of the chromosomes. The DNA in a nucleosome is wound around eight histone proteins, which are known as the histone octamer.  Between nucleosomes is a stretch of DNA called "linker DNA", which is an unwrapped DNA that can be between 10 to 50 base pairs long. H1, one of the four types of histone, seals off where DNA enters and leaves the nucleosome serving as an anchor to the complex. Nucleosomes contribute to DNA packing by wrapping the DNA and forming the structural units of the chromosomes.  Histones have tails that stick out and can be modified, affecting DNA expression; which are known as "histone tails" located in the N-terminal side and where higher order structures are arranged.

How can natural selection create a change in a population?
Flauer [41]
Natural selection can change in a population in multiple ways.
1) natural selection can lower a population by death (an example would be a plague)

2) A population can adapt to the natural selection (an example would be anti bodies for the plague)

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

A general decrease in transcriptional activation

Explanation:

When acetyl groups are added to histone proteins by acetyltransferase enzymes, the 30-nm chromatin fiber will not be formed because the proteins are prevented from doing so. This further destabilizes the chromatin structure and allows the occurrence of transcription. However, raising the cells to  40°C does not allow the acetyltransferase enzyme to function and hence the acetyl group will be hindered from being added to the histone protein which is the main target of the enzymes. Thus, transcription activation will be blocked because the chromatin and nucleosomes would remain stabilized.
