Answer:

The region of the histone molecule that is easily modified is its <em>TAIL.</em>

Explanation:

Histones are a type of alkaline protein that is found on eukaryotic chromatin, packing the former naked DNA into its nucleosome unit. These proteins are both important to 1) compact the incredibly long DNA molecule and, 2) <em>regulating gene expression</em>.

The tail of a histone can suffer the addition of acetyl groups to the molecule (<em>acetylation</em>) or the addition of methyl groups (<em>methylation</em>). These modifications are relevant to the activation or deactivation of genes: acetylation binds the DNA in a much more loosely manner, making it easier for transcription factors to access to it, while methylation does the opposite and provides a tighter bond that deactivates the gene by inhibiting transcription.

What is the difference between DNA, chromatin, and Chromosomes?
Serhud [2]
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is the hereditary material that lies within the nucleus of all cells in humans and other living organisms. Most of the DNA is placed within the nucleus and is called nuclear DNA.

A chromosome is made up of two chromatids which are joined by the centromere. The chromatids separate from each other during mitosis to form two new chromosomes. The DNA making up a chromosome is dispersed as chromatin.

Under a microscope, chromatids look like little dots and chromosomes are lines.

The elements potassium (K) and chlorine (CI) can form an ionic bond. Which of the following
musickatia [10]

Answer:

As chlorine has 7 valence electrons, it tends to form bonds to gain one electron (to get a full valence shell of 8).On the other hand, potassium has one valence electron, so it tends to lose this electron to other atoms (and

become a cation)
