Which one of the following statements MOST accurately describes methylation? Methyl groups are most often added to cytosines adj

acent to guanine bases in or near the promoter sequence, increasing the probability of gene expression. Methyl groups are most often added to adenine-thymine base pairs because they are held by only two hydrogen bonds, and this increases the probability of gene expression. Methyl groups are most often added to cytosines adjacent to guanine bases in or near the promoter sequence, decreasing the probability of gene expression. Methyl groups are most often added to guanine-cytosine base pairs because they are held by three hydrogen bonds, and this decreases the probability of gene expression. Methyl groups are added to most bases in the promoter region of a specific gene so that RNA polymerase and its associated proteins will bind more efficiently.

What effect would there be on the final daughter cell if the spindle fibers failed to pull a chromosome toward the pole, as in c
allochka39001 [22]

Aneuploidy can result in the final daughter cell if the spindle fibers fail to pull a chromosome toward the pole as in case of non-disjunction.  

Explanation:

Aneuploidy is a condition which arises when one or more chromosome is missing in the final daughter cells.

Non-disjunction refers to the failure of chromosomal or chromatid segregation or separation during cell division. This results in erroneous meiosis or mitosis leading to the formation of final daughter cells or gametes with an extra or missing chromosome. This condition is aneuploidy.  

Failure of separation or segregation of:

  • Homologous chromosomes occur in Anaphase I, affects four daughter cells.
  • Sister chromatids during Anaphase II, affects two daughter cells

This failure of separation leads to aneuploidy chromosomal abnormalities like monosomy, trisomy, etc which can cause diseases like Down’s syndrome, Turner’s syndrome etc.

What is the composition of hair?
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

The hair is made up of 95% keratin, a fibrous, helicoidal protein (shaped like a helix) that forms part of the skin and all its appendages (body hair, nails, etc.). Keratin is synthesized by keratinocytes and is insoluble in water, thus ensuring impermeability and protection for the hair.
