atch the statement to the following options.A. One of a pair of chromosomes with similar genetic information and from different
Goryan [66]

Answer:

A. Homologue.

B. Chiasma.

C. Synaptonemal.

D. Synaptonemal.

E. Synapsis.

Explanation:

Genetics can be defined as the scientific study of hereditary in living organisms such as humans, animals and plants.

Synaptonemal complex can be defined as a network of proteins that is responsible for holding homologous chromosomes (homologues) together.

Generally, a synaptonemal complex (protein lattice) is formed between homologous chromosomes during mitosis and meiosis. Also, synaptonemal complex is important for the formation of the four sister chromatids referred to as tetrads.

Furthermore, the synaptonemal complex (protein lattice) has a tripartite structure which comprises of the following components;

I. SC protein-1 (SYCP1).

II. SC protein-2 (SYCP2).

III. SC protein-3 (SYCP3).

In conclusion, the synaptonemal complex plays a significant role in synapsis, recombination and chromosome pairing.

Matching the various terminologies in genetics with their description, we have;

A. Homologue: one of a pair of chromosomes with similar genetic information and from different sources like the sperm and egg.

B. Chiasma: several X-shaped structures may be visible under the microscope and indicate where crossing over has occurred.

C. Synaptonemal: a lattice of protein holds two replicated chromosomes in precise register with one another.

D. Synaptonemal: four chromatids are held together by a zipper-like structure.

E. Synapsis: a process in which pairs of homologous complex chromosomes line up side by side.

Chap 2.3 biology;;
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

Monomer: 2 - Amino acid

                 3 -Nucleotide

Polymer: 1 - Cellulose

               3 - Nucleic acids

Example: 1 - Carbohydrates

               2 -  Collagen

Function 1: Carbohydrates are a source of energy in the body.

Function 2: Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body. It's a long, fibrous structural protein that supports tissues and gives structure to individual cells. Collagen fibers are tough and found in bundles. They providing tensile strength to the tissues containing them.

Function 3: DNA is a protein structure that carries instructions needed for an organism to develop, survive and reproduce. It is a nucleic acid that contains the genetic instructions for the development and function of living things, its main role is the long-term storage of information

Explanation:

Monomers are single molecules that can bond with identical molecules to form polymers.

1. Glucose can combine with other glucose molecules to form starch or cellulose which results in formation of carbohydrates.

Carbohydrates are a source of energy in the body.

2. Amino acids can combine with other amino acids to form a protein chain which results in formation of collagen

Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body. It's a long, fibrous structural protein that supports tissues and gives structure to individual cells. Collagen fibers are tough and found in bundles. They providing tensile strength to the tissues containing them.

3. Nucleotides can combine to form nucleic acids resulting in formation of enzymes.

DNA is a protein structure that carries instructions needed for an organism to develop, survive and reproduce. It is a nucleic acid that contains the genetic instructions for the development and function of living things, its main role is the long-term storage of information
