Answer : A mechanical wave is a wave that does not require a medium to transfer its energy.

Explanation :

A wave creates a disturbance in a medium. The wave can be of many types like the mechanical wave, electromagnetic wave etc.

The electromagnetic wave does not require any medium for the transportation of energy.

The mechanical wave is the wave that requires a medium to transfer energy.  

There are two types of mechanical wave :

  • Longitudinal wave
  • Transverse waves

Hence, the correct option is (A) "does not require a medium to transfer".

If you were able to look very closely at a portion of dna and find methylated histones, you would:___.
Daniel [21]

If you were able to look very closely at a portion of dna and find methylated histones, you would be looking at a region of inactive chromatin.

  • Histone methylation is the process by which methyl groups are added to the histone protein amino acids, which create the nucleosomes around which the DNA double helix coils to form chromosomes.
  • Histone methylation is the addition of one, two, or three methyl groups to certain amino acids within a histone protein. Histones are coiled around DNA in the cell nucleus.
  • These findings collectively imply that DNA methylation can be either active—as a probable contributor to levels of gene expression variation—or passive—as a result of or a separate indicator of gene expression levels.

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

A is wrong: making lipids is the SMOOTH ER's job, not the rough er

B is wrong: protecting the nucleus is the nuclear membrane's job

D is wrong: Producing ATP is mainly the mitochondria's job

C is right because the ribosome's main job is making proteins, and those instructions come from the nucleus, so there needs to be a close access.
