Answer:

The correct answer is option B, Diffusion

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide and oxygen diffuse across the semipermeable membrane due to the variation of concentration across the membrane (known as concentration gradient). Oxygen diffuses into the cell from outside because its concentration is high on the outer side of the cell wall. While carbon dioxide diffuses out of the cell, because its concentration is high on the inner side of cell membrane.  

Also, both carbon dioxide and oxygen are non polar and small sized molecules due to which they can be easily transported across the lipid membrane.

How does histone acetylation affect chromatin?
NikAS [45]

Answer:

The correct answer is option A.

Explanation:

The histone acetylation catalyzed by histone acetyltransferases and deacetylation catalyzed by histone deacetylases performs a significant role in the regulation of the expression of genes in eukaryotes. Histone acetylation diminishes the affinity of histones towards DNA leading to relaxing or decondensation of chromatin and becomes accessible to the transcriptional apparatus and to perform transcription.  

It can be stated that histone acetylation is related to expression or gene or activation and histone deacetylation is related to the inactivation of gene or repression.
