DNA compaction into chromosomes is dependent upon a family of proteins called histones. These essential DNA organization protein

s serve to package and organize DNA while ensuring that sections of DNA needed for transcription are readily available to the appropriate cellular machinery. Classify the statements as describing all histones classes, histone H1, histones H2A and H2B or histones H3 and H4.

Answer:

Explanation:

The history protein H2A, H2B, H3 and H4 forms an octamer ( 2 each of the four histones) around which the DNA is wrapped. They help in packaging the DNA allowing for compaction of the DNA

Linker histone H1 and a length of DNA (linker DNA) links two nucleosomes together and they also play essential role in chromatin strucrure, stabilizing it and also modulating accessibility of the DNA to biological processes.

How many sex chromosomes does the normal human female inherit from her mother?
AveGali [126]

Answer:

A. 1.2

Explanation:

Normally, a human body cell contains 46 chromosomes - 23 inherited from the father and the same number from the mother.

Most of the human DNA, or human genes, are located in the chromosomes.

Each metaphase chromosome consists of:

two sister chromatids containing one DNA molecule each, and since they are formed by replication, these molecules are completely identical in gene content; that is why chromatids are called sister chromatids;  two centromeres, one on each chromatid.

Answer:

Genetic mutation.

Explanation:

Insects may grow used to the effects of pesticides over time (natural selection), causing their genetics to be stronger than the pesticides, while eagles (having nothing to do with pesticides, because they typically live in the air) would be affected because the presence of the chemicals are new to its genetics.
