Why is it difficult to observe individual chromosomes with a light microscope during interphase?

Biology

asambeis [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

They have uncoiled to form long, thin strands.

Explanation:

Chromosomes are present in cell nucleus and consist of chromatin. Genes are present in linear order on chromosomes.  The chromosomes become visible under the microscope as distinct structures during cell division. When cells are not dividing, the chromosomes decondense to loose their individuality and make the mass of chromatin.  

Chromatin is complex of DNA and packing proteins. As the cells enter the prophase stage of cell division, condensation of chromatin occurs and individual chromosomes become visible under microscope. Before that (during interphase), chromosomes are not visible as they are present in decondensed form.

A biologist analyzes the DNA sequences of one gene in three different primates . The biologist finds that primates A and B have
Nataly_w [17]

The question is incomplete as it does not have the option which are:

  • primates A and B are more closely related to each other than either is to primate C.
  • all three primates appeared on Earth at about the same time.
  • either primate A or primate B must be a direct ancestor of primate C.
  • primate C must have been the ancestor of both primate A and primate B.

Answer:

Primates A and B are more closely related to each other than either is to primate C.

Explanation:

In the given question, on the basis of the given information, it can be predicted that the Primate A and B are more closely related to C as the DNA sequences of these two primates are almost similar. The similarity of the sequence suggests that these primates have descended or diverged from a common ancestor.

The DNA sequence of C is different from both A and B which shows that both A and B are different from the C.

Thus, the selected option is the correct answer.
