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

Mendel referred to what we know of as alleles as ""factors."" What did he conclude happens to these factors during gamete format
Anettt [7]

Answer:

option A. the factors separate

Explanation:

The Mendel referred alleles as factors. Mendel was unaware about gene but he knew that there are two factors for a single character. The single factor gets transferred from each parent. The gene contains two alleles/factors. The alleles/factors from both mother and father separates at the time of formation of gametes. These gametes from both parents containing alleles/factors recombines and thus forming a zygote.

Thus, factors separate during gamete formation. So, option A is correct.

URGENT PLEASE
____ [38]

Answer:

Part A: Both the parents must be the carrier of the diseases that is, Cc.

Part B: one out of four or 25 percent chances are there that their offspring would have cystic fibrosis.

As cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disorder, the individual needs to carry two copies of the recessive allele that is, homozygous recessive (cc).

It is stated that neither of the parents has the disorder but their offspring show the phenotype, then both the parents must be the carrier of the disorder that is, both must heterozygous (Cc).

The offspring produces by this cross can have three types of genotypes CC, Cc, cc in 1:2:1.

Thus, only one out of four would show the disease.

zhuklara [117]

Tropical rain forest

Explanation:

The tropical rain forest of the world spans from Asia to South America and Africa.

This biome is typified by a lush green vegetation made up of tall trees and short dense undergrowth. Diverse varieties of plant and animal life abounds there.

The tropical rain forest is the most bio-diverse in our world today.

This biodiversity of plant species should be a favorable advantage for the biologist trying to find a new set of antibiotics.

Here, a plethora of plant species would be presented to her giving her several alternatives to work with.
