Genomic DNA from the nematode worm Caenorhabditis elegans is organized by nucleosomes in the manner typical of eukaryotic genome

s, with 145 bp encircling each nucleosome and approximately 55 bp in linker DNA. When C. elegans chromatin is carefully isolated, stripped of non-histone proteins, and placed in an appropriate buffer, the chromatin decondenses. Suppose researchers mix a sample of this chromatin with a large amount of DNase I that randomly cleaves DNA in regions that are not protected by bound proteins. Next, they remove the nucleosomes, separate the DNA fragments by gel electrophoresis, and stain the fragments with ethidium bromide.
a. Approximately what range of DNA fragment sizes do you expect to see in the stained electrophoresis gel? How many bands will be visible on the gel?

b. Explain the origin of DNA fragments seen in the gel.

Answers:

a. We will see DNA fragments with 145-200 bps (only one band)

b. The DNA sequence linked to histones will be protected from the action of DNase I, thereby this enzyme only can cut linker DNA (i.e., 55 bp fragments). In consequence, it is expected to observe a single band with a length of approximately 145 to 200 base pairs

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

In Jacksons talk about his depressing story he talks about how after a natural disaster such as a hurricane there is some kind of successional sequence of recovery but now what's happening is that overfishing, pollution, and climate change are all interacting In a way that prevents the recovery.  

Explanation:

I had the same question in my marine science class and got it right.

Before DNA is replicated, it reads AGATCGAGT. An external factor causes a mutation to the sequence, and it now reads: AAATCGAGT.
n200080 [17]

Answer: only one amino acid in the sequence changes

Explanation: if you change both sequences given to rna sequences in the first one all the amino acids you get are serine. in the second sequence of you change them to rna then do the chart they all are serine but one which is phenylalaine.

seraphim [82]

Answer:

Explanation:

Scenario 2: R is codominant with r.

Scenario 3: R and S are completely dominant to rand s, respectively; R and S are linked by 15 m.u. and do not interact with each other.

Scenario 4: Genes R and S perform the same function; R and S are completely dominant to r and s, respectively; and R and S are unlinked.

Scenario 5: R and S are completely dominant to r and s, respectively; R and S are linked by 10 m.u. and show dominant epistasis.
