Capillary action causes water to move throughout plants.
igomit [66]3 years ago

Answer:

D. Capillary action

Explanation:

Capillary action refers to the ability of the water to move in narrow tubes due to its abilities of cohesion and adhesion. Water molecules have a tendency to stick to the polar charged atoms or molecules (the adhesion) and to stick to one another (the cohesion).  

The tendency of cohesion and adhesion allow the water to move up in the narrow tubes such as celery stalk against the gravitational force. This upward movement of water through the stem of plants is called capillary action.

9. Which of the following is considered a Local Histone Mobilization (circle all the correct ones and explain each) a. Ejection
kati45 [8]

Answer:

Phosphorylation

Methylation

Explanation:

Histone mobilization deals with the covalent bonding of several functional groups to the free nitrogens in the R-groups of lysine in the N-terminal tail.

DNA transcription can be controlled or altered via 'methylation' on the histones. Methylation is the mode of transferring methyl group to amino group of histone proteins that form the nucleosomes, which result to chromosomes formation through wrapping of DNA double helix around it. Histones methylation can either increase or decrease genes transcription. Chromatin modification is known to stimulate neural pathways that are essential for long memories and learning.

Histones phosphorylation is associated transcriptional activation. It deals with the transfer of phosphate group to amino acids of the proteins. Phosphate group known to be negatively charged, when transferred to amino acids of the histone proteins, it creates a repulsive force with the negatively charged phosphates of the DNA backbone. It can occur in serine, tyrosine and threonine. The enzymes kinases activate phosphorylation, while protein phosphatases remove phosphate groups.

Describe the purpose of the Nucleus in a cell / discuss the DNA structure inside of the nucleus and what is the job of DNA and h
liberstina [14]
The nucleus is able to control and regulate the rest of the cell(it basically tells it what to do). The DNA is made up of chromosomes,the DNAs shape is a double helix and is tightly packed inside of the nucleus. The job of the DNA is to regulate the rest of the cell and tell the cell what kind of cell it is and what job it needs to do(ex all cells are different so the dna determines the type of cell like a bone cell or blood cell) this ties in with genetic because your dna makes up your cells and your cells make up who you are.
