Answer: Option D) The negatively charged DNA is electrostatically attracted to positively charged regions on proteins

Explanation:

Proteins are composed of several amino acids with positively charged amino groups in their side chain, while DNA is composed of several nucleotides with negatively charged phosphate groups.

Thus, there is an electrostatic attraction of negatively charged DNA to positively charged regions on proteins at physiological pH.

What is a ecosystem? write 2 to 5 sentences to explain it​
Nonamiya [84]

Ecosystem is that it is a community or group of living organisms that live in and interact with each other in a specific environment.

For instance, tropical forests are ecosystems made up of living beings such as trees, plants, animals, insects and micro-organisms that are in constant interaction between themselves and that are affected by other physical (sun, temperature) or chemical (oxygen or nutrients) components.


An ecosystem consists of a community of organisms together with their physical environment.
Ecosystems can be of different sizes and can be marine, aquatic, or terrestrial. Broad categories of terrestrial ecosystems are called biomes.
In ecosystems, both matter and energy are conserved. Energy flows through the system—usually from light to heat—while matter is recycled.
Ecosystems with higher biodiversity tend to be more stable with greater resistance and resilience in the face of disturbances, or disruptive events.

Nutrients deposited on leaves as dust and materials leached from leaves through insect action are most often transported to the
postnew [5]
The appropriate answer is B. Throughfall. These nutrients are transported via the process of throughfall where rain flows from leaves to the ground. Rainforests receive high annual rainfall. The leaves are also designed to funnel water to the ground soon after a shower. Leaves are equipped with drip tips to allow water to roll of leaves easily. Any particles deposited on leaves are going to be washed to the forest floor by frequent rainfall that occurs here.
