1. The right answer is Prokaryotes.

In biology and taxonomy, a prokaryotic organism is a prokaryotic cell, a unicellular organism lacking nucleus and organelles whose unique DNA molecule forms a circle or a helix. It is a cellular microorganism in which the chromosomes are not enclosed in a nucleus; for example a bacterium. The exception is ribosomes.


2. The right answer is Lysogenic infection (Virus latency or persistence).

Viral latency is a period in which complete copies of viral genetic information persist in an infected host cell, but there is no continuous production of infectious virus particles.

The genetic material of the virus at this stage is embedded in the genome of the host cell in the form of DNA sequences. During the latency, the whole genome of the virus is in the cell, and its expression is very limited.

it is denoted as the lysogenic part of the life cycle of the virus (like HIV and Herpes).


3. The right answer is Spiral bacteria

Some bacteria are helical. They are Spirillas if the form is invariable and rigid, Spirochaetes if the body is flexible and can change shape. The great diversity of forms is determined by the cell wall and the cytoskeleton. The different forms of bacteria can influence their ability to acquire nutrients, attach to surfaces, swim in a liquid and escape predation.


4. The right answer is Endospore

The endospore (or spore) is a structure that forms within the cytoplasm of certain species of bacteria when the environmental conditions are unfavorable (nutritive stress, desiccation, heat ...).

The spore contains especially nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) and proteins. The cytoplasm is dehydrated. The spore is surrounded by a spore wall, a cortex (composed of a specific peptidoglycan and calcium dipicolinate), a double tunic consisting of fibrous proteins. The outermost layer is the exosporium.

How is DNA a piece of evidence for evolution
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

DNA and the genetic code reflect the shared ancestry of life. DNA comparisons can show how related species are. Biogeography. The global distribution of organisms and the unique features of island species reflect evolution and geological change.

1) How is DNA condensed to form a chromosome?
Bumek [7]

Answer:

1) DNA is wrapped around histone proteins to form chromatin

2) The genes are the functional units, the segments between them are used for regulation

3) The genetic code is the language used, gene expression is how the cell uses the information, the activity of the genes.

Explanation:

1) DNA forms a DNA/protein complex called chromatin. It does this by wrapping around histone proteins. These histone proteins are usually present in the form of a nucleosome, which is a unit containing 2 copies of 4 histones (H2A, H2B, H3 and H4). The chromatin fibre at its most compact forms tightly coiled structures called chromosomes. These structures are only present during cell division. When the cell is in interphase (i.e. not dividing), the chromatin is not as tightly condensed, and instead the chromatin is more relaxed to allow the genes within to be expressed.

2) Genes are the functional units that the cell uses to make RNA and protein. The genes are first transcribed into RNA, which is processed and then translated into a polypeptide chain, which forms a complete protein that performs activities in the cell/tissue/organism. However, the whole genome does not form genes, there are regions that do not correspond to a gene. These regions are called "non-coding DNA" or sometimes even "junk DNA". However, that does not mean that these regions do not have important roles. The role of this DNA is usually in regulating the activity of the nearby genes. This DNA might contain important regulatory sequences such as promoters/enhancers/silencers that control how the gene is used by the cell, by for example, recruiting transcription factors or silencing proteins.

3) The genetic code is the language used by the cell. It explains how the cell can transcribe the information in the DNA, to RNA, process the RNA, and then translate the RNA into a polypeptide, and eventually a mature protein. In contrast, gene expression represents how the cell actually uses this information. Not all the genes are transcribed at the same time, instead, the activity of genes is carefully controlled to produce appropriate gene expression patterns, allowing the cell to properly perform its functions. Gene expression is hugely different between cells in an organism, for example the gene expression patterns of a muscle cell will  be hugely different to that of a blood cell.
