The answer for this question would be the second option. Genomic studies cover the analysis of the changes of genome by scanning the markers across complete sets of DNA. Based on these studies, the change in gene sequences happen that resulted to a change in the way that the brain interprets speech in between 4 and 9 million years ago.

Answer:

Option B, between 4 and 9 million years ago

Explanation:

It took million of years for human being to evolve from its ancestral animals. The time required to evolve was basically due to the time consumed in upgrading the cognitive thinking process of human being.

Nearly 2 million years were required to develop the cerebral cortex  and hence expand its abilities.

A gene named FOXP2 evolved by positive selection  and played an important role in the evolution of human speech and language.  It took nearly the same time by humans to develop speech as the time required by human to evolve from chimpanzees.

Hence, option B is correct

When DNA is compacted by histones into 10-nm and 30-nm fibers, the DNA is unable to interact with proteins required for gene exp
poizon [28]

Answer:

This is through the process of methylation and phosphorylation of histones tails.

Explanation:

The addition of   a methyl group  to the amino acid of the histones of the  nucleosomes   that compacted DNA  in the nucleus is  called mehtylation, while the addtion of phodpahte is phosphorylation

Its  effects  on  gene expression depends on the number of <u> methyl groups, and type of amino acid that  methylated. During transcription. </u>

<u />

The DNA double strands are compacted and therefore  hidden  from transcription factors and enzymes of transcription by the hitones  tails of the neuclosomes, Methylation  weaken the binding bonds between the tails and DNA structure ; thereby aiding the uncoiling of DNA  from the  tails.(nucleosomes).This chemical  reaction  aided  DNA  strands  exposure   to transcription factors and enzymes, for initiation of transcription. This explains the dyanmic activity of methylation

Futhermore phophorylation also favours unwrapping of DNA, by imitating   modifying enzymes e.g H3Y41E and H3T45E  and convert it to→→ H3Y41phopspahte to aid DNA unwrapping and accessibility to  transcription factors and RNA polymerase Enzymes,

The diploid cells of a radish plant contain 18 chromosomes. How many chromosomes are in a radish plant's haploid cells?
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

9

Explanation:

The diploid chromosome number for a radish is 18 and the diploid chromosome number for cabbage is also 18. The haploid number for these species is nine. Therefore, the gametes of the radish and cabbage contain nine chromosomes.
