True or false? One possible way to alter chromatin structure such that genes could be transcribed would be to make histone prote
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The histones that are more positively charged, tight hardly to negatively charged DNA. So, enzymes, such as acetyltransferases, that reduce the positive charge of histones promote transcription.

Chromatin structure and its modifications can change the package of the DNA and consequently, alter the gene expression. The most common modifications of the chromatin are covalent modifications such as acetylation/deacetylation (by acetyltransferases and eacetylases), methylation (by methyltransferases), and phosphorylation (by kinases).  This is the way of gene expression regulation.

The effects of modifications are different, for example methylation promotes  condensation of the chromatin and as a consequence, prevents binding of transcription factors to the DNA (transcription is repressed).

Acetylation loosens the association between nucleosomes and DNA (because it neutralizes the positive charge of histones) and consequently promotes transcription. Deacetylation is a process opposite to acetylation.

A drought causes a wildfire which destroys a forest. Which Earth systems interact during this process? (1 point) Select one: a.
Ne4ueva [31]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>It is the biosphere and hydrosphere that interact when a drought causes a wildfire that destroys a forest. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Hydrosphere consists of all the water bodies of earth like oceans, seas, rivers, lakes etc.  a drought occurs due to scarcity of water which affects the hydrosphere. The scarcity of water causes plants and trees to dry up and become more prone to catching fire

Biosphere includes all the living organisms of the earth. It includes plants, trees, birds, insects, animals etc. A drought dries up a whole area and a small fire that starts up somewhere in  a forest would then engulf the whole forest.
