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.

kherson [118]

Proteins are the macromolecules made of hundreds of amino acids. Proteins are most varied class of biological molecules and show the greatest variety of structures. Many have detailed three-dimensional folding patterns that result in a compact form, but others do not fold up at all and they are in random conformations. The function of proteins depends on their structure.

The secondary structure of protein fold together to form the 3D arrangement of a polypeptide chain that results into Tertiary structure which is a functional protein.

Surviving in the Antarctic is extremely difficult What advantage do Emperor Penguins have that animals in the less-harsh Arctic
Savatey [412]
Emperor penguins have the ability to 'recycle' their own body heat. The arteries and veins lie close together so that blood is pre-cooled on the way to a penguin's feet, wings and bill and warmed on the way back to the heart. Emperors' feet are adapted to the icy conditions
