Answer: two types of macromolecules: nucleic acid and protein

Explanation:

Chromosomes particularly eukaryotic chromosomes are made up of nucleic acids in particular DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and some proteins which include histone proteins and non histone protein that helps in the packaging of an almost 2m DNA into a very tiny 0.6microm nucleus. The histone protein includes H2A, H2B, H3, H4 which forms an octamer around which the DNA is wrapped (structure of a nucleosome) and linker histone H1 joined to a linker DNA that links two nucleosomes.

explain how a mutation is an individuals DNA occurs, and describe the effect it may have on the individuals trait. I need help o
Mazyrski [523]
Mutations are spontaneous and occur at random however there are some mutagenic agents which increase the chance of this happening such as radiation exposure. If it is a point shift mutation then only a few bases on the dna sequence are changed so only changes a few of the amino acids in that chain (such as inversion of a base). If its a frame shift then the base sequence is altered so much so that every amino acid from after that changes (such as deletion of a base) which can create things such as cri-du-chat syndrome which results from a piece of chromosome 5 is missing. Hope this helps:)

Which phase of the cell cycle is the least common process of mitosis and what could be the reason?
AveGali [126]

Answer:

In anaphase, the shortest stage of mitosis, the sister chromatids break apart, and the chromosomes begin moving to opposite ends of the cell. By the end of anaphase, the 2 halves of the cell have an equivalent collection of chromosomes. In telophase, 2 daughter nuclei form. The nuclear envelope beings to reappear.
