Yanni made a chart to compare the strong and weak forces. Which best describes Yanni’s error? Only the weak force is active in t

he nuclei of atoms. The weak force keeps particles that make up neutrons together. The strong force overcomes repulsion and keeps protons together. The strong force is responsible for radioactive decay..

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Nucleus of an atom consists of protons and neutrons. Protons are positively charged and neutrons have no charge. So, due to the like charges of protons there occurs electrostatic force of repulsion inside the nucleus of the atom.

But due to similar number of neutrons and protons a force that is able to bind both of them together is known as strong nuclear binding energy.

This force is strong enough that it is able to overcome electrostatic force of repulsion. But when there is great difference in the number of protons and neutrons then binding force is not strong enough.

Hence, the atom becomes unstable and undergoes radioactive decay. So, this means weak forces are responsible for radioactive decay.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement which best describes Yanni’s error is that the strong force is responsible for radioactive decay.

what molecules will be best used to compare different species with the exact same sequence of amino acids? why would two species
AleksandrR [38]

Ans.

Protein synthesis involves formation of proteins, during which information present in DNA is used to make polypeptide chains. Hence, amino acid sequence of a polypeptide chain is determined by the sequence that may differ in different species having proteins with same amino acid sequence.

Thus, the molecules that are used to compare different species with proteins having exact same amino acid sequences are DNA molecules.

Protein synthesis includes two steps, transcription and translation. During transcription, DNA gets converted into RNA by RNA polymerase enzyme, while during translation, RNA provides information to make proteins.

In RNA information is present as triplets of nucleotides, known as codon. Each code codes for a specific amino acid. There are a total of 64 codons, while number of protein-forming amino acids is 20. Hence, one amino acid can be coded by more than one codon and this property of codons is known as degeneracy of codons.

Thus, two species may have the same protein even if their DNA molecules are different because of degeneracy of codons.

The domestic cat genome contains 2.9×109 base pairs. The length of linker DNA in mammals is 50 base pairs. Approximately how man
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

Number of nucleosomes in 2.9 * 10^9bp is equal to 1.47 * 10^7

Explanation:

For wounding one nucleosome, total length of DNA required is equal to 146 bp

The length of  linker DNA in mammals is equal to 50 bp

Thus , the total length of DNA that confides between two nucleosome is equal to the sum of wounding length of DNA and the linker length

= 146 + 50\\= 196bp

Thus, in 196bp length of DNA, the total number of nucleosomes is equal to 1

Thus, number of nucleosomes in 2.9 * 10^9bp is equal to

\frac{2.9* 10^9}{196} \\1.47 * 10^7
