DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is known to be the genetic material for almost all organisms. It is tightly packed within the nucleus of every cell and wraps around the unique proteins known as histone. These histones form the loops of DNA called nucleosomes.

Further Explanation:

The genetic information is known to be packaged in 23 sets of chromosomes. In these, histones which are the proteins that aid the molecule of DNA to be very tightly packed in added and also aids in maintaining the double-helical structure of the DNA.

The thread-like structure provided in the diagram is known as chromosome. Chromosomes are found in the nucleus and it is composed up of protein as well as single molecule of DNA. The bunch like structures present is known as nucleosomes that are considered to be the basic unit of the DNA packaging.

The histone units make the structural units of the nucleosome and these units and bounded in the tight helical fiber. Finally, is the structure of DNA, which is known to be the genetic material.

I assume this photo has the labels you are talking about.

DNA double helix consists of two strands that wind around each other with their nucleotides liked.-> it's the structure number 5
nucleosome- it's a segment of DNA wound in sequence around eight histones (proteins)- number 2
Histone- proteins with DNA around them, forming the nucleosome- number 4
Tight helical fiber- chromatin coiled very tightly- 3
Cromosome- chromatin condensed even tighter forming a X shape.- 1

When a chemical reaction is moving at a slow rat of speed, what can be done to speed up the reaction

Mama L [17]

Answer:

To speed up the rate of reaction, you could increase the temperature or the concentration of the reactants.

Explanation:

Basically, the idea is to speed up the molecules' movement and to cause them to break apart or collide at greater frequency

In homeostasis, what is it that produces the response that moves the physiological variable back towards the middle of its healt

insens350 [35]

Answer:

effector

Explanation:If the value is not at the set point or is outside the normal range, the control center sends a signal to the effector. The effector is an organ, gland, muscle, or other structure that acts on the signal from the control center to move the variable back toward the set point.

Cual es la funcion del enrollamiento del ADN

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

Los cromosomas se forman cuando la cromatina se condensa durante la división celular, sólo en este proceso son visibles. Este proceso es muy importante, ya que esta condensación o sobre enrollamiento, hace que se economice espacio, si esto no sucediera, la cromatina excedería el espacio nuclear disponible.
