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

Passwords, tokens, and fingerprint scans are all examples of ________. identification authentication authorization credentials

julia-pushkina [17]

The answer to the fill in the blank is option B) Authentication

Passwords, tokens, and fingerprint scans are all examples of Authentication.

We use passwords, tokens and even fingerprints since they can be unique identifications and are usually seen as more secure.

In the above options, fingerprints are seen as the most secure form of authentication since everyone has unique fingerprints.

One of the earliest forms of authentication were time cards used as early as the 1950s and even unique keys and stamps used by early civilizations.

How might an ecologist test whether a species is occupying its complete fundamental niche or only a portion of it? how might an

Sliva [168]

Ecologists are the persons who study the interrelationships between organisms and their environments. Like they research upon the species found in forests or deserts interact with each other and as well as their surroundings.

They test whether a species is occupying its complete fundamental niche or only a portion of it by observing if the species are expanding their range after the removal of a competitor because two species with the same fundamental niche will exclude other competing species.

Which of the following does NOT help increase conversion of short-term to long-term memories?

Contact [7]

Answer:

Memory consolidation

Explanation:

Short term memory is stored in the brain for relatively short period of time especially for few minutes. Long term memory is stored in brain for long period ( years or lifetime).

Short term memory can be converted into the long term memory by association, rehearsal and involved with emotional state. Memory consolidation is the process of learning new things and store them in previously stored memories. Hence, memory consolidation does not increase the conversion of short memory to long term memory.

Thus, the correct answer is option (1).
