In later chapters, you will learn more about the regulation of gene expression. One way to regulate gene expression is to make c

hanges to the histone proteins to alter how tightly the DNA is coiled and wrapped. The more tightly coiled and wrapped a particular region of DNA is, the less likely it is that the genes in that region will be expressed. Bearing this in mind, how tightly do you think regions of heterochromatin are compacted?

Answer:

Highly condensed.

Explanation:

The different region of the eukaryotic chromosome are euchromatin region and heterochromatin region. The heterochromatin region is genetically inactive whereas euchromatin region is highly active.

The heterochromatin region is generally present at the periphery of the nucleus. This region is transcriptionally inactive. This is because of the compactness of DNA. DNA is packed very tightly or present in highly condensed form with the histones.

Thus, the answer is highly condensed.

Answer:

Cabbage is a different story. Per capita consumption of it peaked way back in the 1920s, when the average American ate 22 pounds of it per year. Nowadays, we eat about eight pounds, most of it disguised as cole slaw or sauerkraut.

This makes it pretty interesting that kale and cabbage — along with broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, collard greens, and kohlrabi, and several other vegetables — all come from the exact same plant species: Brassica oleracea.

In some circles, kale has become really, really popular. Once a little-known speciality crop, its meteoric rise is now the subject of national news segments. Some experts are predicting that kale salads will soon be on the menus at TGI Friday's and McDonald's.

Considering the experimental design, which claim is best supported using the data?
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

C low competition for glucose

Explanation:

From the given answer choices and information,

It cannot be A since there is no visual disease or any indication of disease in the experiment

Cannot be B, since space would not be an issue since it clearly hit 111 on day 3

and cannot be D since there is no indication of a change in temperature.

However, we know Petri Dishes have nutrients to stimulate cell growth, and those resources are not unlimited therefore we can only attest that a large portion of the nutrients have been consumed and starved some of the cells thus causing a population decrease
