Answer:

The correct answer is A) Histone deacetylation generally decreases gene expression.

Explanation:

Histones are the proteins that are responsible for the condensation of chromatin, which is directly linked to the capacity that a gene has to be expressed. The more condensed a gene is, the less expressible it becomes.

In order to regulate the gene expression, histones can suffer from many modifications that can change their conformation and the expressiveness of specific genes.

<u>Histone acetylation is linked with an increase of gene expression; while deacetylation and methylation decrease gene expression.</u>

How much energy is produced when the sun
adell [148]

Answer:

E=1.53\times 10^{17}\ J

Explanation:

We need to find the energy produced when Sun converts 1.7 kg of mass into energy. Einstein's mass energy relation is given by :

E=mc^2

c is speed of light

E=1.7\times (3\times 10^8)^2\\\\E=1.53\times 10^{17}\ J

So, energy produced is 1.53\times 10^{17}\ J.

These drugs destroys bacteria by preventing them from replicating and reproducing their copies. This way the strain is unable to continue one of its essential life function.

These substances are active against bacteria and provides a toxic condition for them to replicate.
