Information: Carrying capacity is the amount of things that can be placed onto something else without damaging and/or breaking the other thing. An example would be an elevator. Elevators have a certain carrying capacity and only so many people can fit on it before the elevator will no longer be able to support all the weight.
Answer: Carrying capacity is a certain amount of things that can be carried on something else without damaging and/or breaking the other thing.
Answer:
D) lytic infection
Explanation:
During lytic infection, a virus enters the host cell, makes a copy of itself, and causes the cell to burst, or lyse.
Answer:
A. The chromatin near cis-regulatory sequences will be more closed and there will be less transcription.
Explanation:
In the presence of histones, the cis-regulatory sequences of DNA like promoter, enhancers etc. are not exposed. The function of the histone acetyltransferases (HATS) is to cause chromosome decondensation i.e. removal of histones from the DNA so that transcription of the DNA could occur. Histone acetyltransferases (HATS) cause acetylation of lysine amino acid of the histone proteins. Acetyl group is negatively charged so the acetylation of histone proteins leads to the removal of their positive charge which ultimately leads to the decrease in the interaction between N terminal of histones and negatively charged phosphate group of the DNA molecule. As soon as histones are removed from the DNA where cis-regulatory sequences are located, the DNA becomes accessible for transcription.
But here a drug has been added which blocks the activity of histone acetyltransferases (HATS) in cancer cells. So it is quite evident that in these cells, histones will not get removed from the cis-regulatory sequences of DNA so the DNA will be more closer or tightly packed as a result of which less transcription will occur.
Topographic maps and satellite images
Explanation:
A topographic map represents earth's surface features like land forms and structures, rivers and lakes, mountains and hills, elevations and other natural features along with man-made artificial features like cities, buildings, monuments, roads, bridges etc. These are formed by contour lines.
Topographic maps are printed with revision dates to observe the changes happening on the Earth's surface. Various land forms keeps changing due to natural and man-made causes and these needs to be updated accordingly to provide accurate details.
A satellite image provides details of the earth aerially from space. These provides details of a land form or any earth structure currently.
By comparing with older satellite images or topographic maps with the current one, the changes which occurred over time can be observed.
