Which statements about the modification of chromatin structure in eukaryotes are true? Select all that apply.
Crank

Ans.

Chromatin molecules are made up of DNA and histone proteins. Modification of chromatin structure include covalent, post-translational changes in histone proteins, present in chromation. Acetylation and methylation are two important histone modifications that affect structure of chromatin molecules.

Acetylation involves addition of an acetyl group to histones that increases transcription of DNA by loosen the association between DNA and nucleosome.

Methylation involves addition of a methyl group to histones that results in condensation of chromatin molecule and thus, decreases transcription of DNA.

Both acetylation and methylation are reversible processes.

Many chromatin modifications are genetic, means they can pass from one generation to another generation, called epigenetic modifications.

Thus, options B), C), D), E), and F).

What process exerts the pull on water molecules that is relayed from leaf to root via cohesion? what process exerts the pull on
marissa [1.9K]

Evaporation of the water is the process that exerts the pull on water molecules that is relayed from leaf to root via cohesion. The pressure of the water present in the leaves becomes less due to evaporation of water. The pressure of water in the roots and lower part of the shoot is high. This gradient of pressure creates a pull on the water molecules present in the roots to move upwards to the leaves to occupy the vacant space. The whole process is called transpiration.
