Which of the following is most critical for the association between histones and DNA?

Biology
1 answer:
Strike441 [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The correct answer is - Histones are positively charged.

Explanation:

Histone is an octamer that is made up of four proteins and each protein has 2 copies. These proteins are H2A, H2B, H3, and H4. Histone proteins are mainly made up of positively charged amino acids like arginine and lysine which gives histone proteins an overall positive charge.

This positive charge of histone plays important role in the binding of DNA around it because phosphate group present in the DNA makes DNA negatively charged molecules that are attracted by positively charged histone protein by electrostatic interaction.

This interaction results in the wrapping of DNA around the histone proteins and then compaction of DNA into chromatin. Therefore the right answer is- histones are positively charged.

What two compounds are the waste products of cellular respiration? * H2O and CO2 H2O and C6H12O6 CO2 and C6H12O6 ATP and CO2
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

The two compounds that correspond to waste products of cellular respiration are H₂O and CO₂.

Explanation:

The cellular metabolic waste products, specifically from cellular respiration are water (H₂O) and carbon dioxide (CO₂), from the oxidation of glucose into energy.

The process of <u>cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells and consists of a series of chemical reactions</u> where, from a glucose molecule, energy is obtained in the form of ATP molecules.

Obtaining H₂O and CO₂ from glucose can be summarized with the schematic reaction:

                                 <em>C₆H₁₂O₆  +  6O₂ →  6H₂O  +  6CO₂</em>

This summary indicates that a glucose molecule, when oxidized, produces as waste 6 molecules of water and 6 molecules of carbon dioxide. To reach this process all the reactions of the oxidative phosphorylation occur and 24 molecules of ATP are obtained for each molecule of glucose.

For the other options it is important to mention that:

  • <em><u>C₆H₁₂O₆</u></em><em> is the substrate from which cellular respiration takes place. </em>
  • <em><u>ATP </u></em><em>is the final product of cellular respiration, translated into energy to be used by the cell.</em>
