Why is it necessary for the genetic material in a cell to exist in chromatin form during normal cellular activity, and not in ch

romosome form?
a)It requires more surface area in the cell to have the cells condense. b)Condensing into chromosome form requires more energy than the cell has to exert.
c) Chromatin prevents genetic material from being broken off during replication. d)Chromatin form allows the genetic code to be read and proteins to be made.

D- During interphase, when the cell is not dividing, chromatin is less tightly packed compared to our chromosomes, which allows transcription to occur.

Answer:

d) Chromatin form allows the genetic code to be read and proteins to be made.

Explanation:

Chromatin:

It is the structure of DNA along with histone proteins that are not in condensed form. This structure is further made up of Euchromatin which is loosely packed and Heterochromatin which is tightly packed. Chromatin especially Euchromatin allows the genetic code to be read by polymerase enzymes and proteins to be synthesized.

Chromosome:

It is a highly condensed structure of DNA and histone proteins which is seen during cell division. This structure of heredity material is adopted for the proper segregation of alleles during cell division.

Best choice:

d) Chromatin form allows the genetic code to be read and proteins to be made.

Because identical twins begin as a single fertilized egg that then separates, identical twins share ____ percent of genetic make
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Because identical twins begin as a single fertilized egg that then separates, identical twins share 100 percent of genetic makeup.

<h3>IDENTICAL TWINS:</h3>

Identical twins are a type of twins characterized by their phenotypic similarity. They look so much alike that they are almost morphologically indistinguishable.

Their similarity emanates from their genetic content. Identical twins are formed when two sperms fertilize a single egg, which then splits into two.

Since identical twins begin as a single fertilized egg that then separates, this means that they share 100% of their genetic makeup.

Please help ASAP! Describe at least one way in which each of Earth’s subsystems was altered during the Precambrian era.
trasher [3.6K]

The Precambrian era envelopes the major bulk of the history of the Earth, beginning from the creation of the planet approx 4.5 billion years ago and terminating with the origination of composite, multicelled forms of life approximately 4 billion years after.

The Precambrian refers to the earliest of the geologic ages that are signified by the distinct layers of sedimentary rock. The Earth was about more than six hundred million years old when life started. The planet had cooled down from its native molten state, creating a solid crust and oceans formed by water vapor in the atmosphere.

At about three billion years ago, the atmosphere of the Earth was virtually devoid of oxygen. At approximately 2.4 billion years ago, oxygen was discharged from the seas as a waste product of photosynthesis by cyanobacteria. The levels of the gas slowly raised, attaining about 1 percent around two billion years ago.

Approximately 800 million years ago, the levels of oxygen attained about 21 percent and started to breathe life into more composite species. The oxygen-rich ozone layer was also created, protecting the surface of the Earth from the harmful solar radiation.

Aquatic ecologist david strayer of the institute of ecosystem studies and a team of researchers from new york state's department
Sedaia [141]
In communities where zebra mussels have invaded we observed that the population of invertebrates, zooplankton, and phytoplankton they will decrease when in open water. The population of bottom-dwelling invertebrates which are in the littoral zone will increase.
Hypothesis shows the zebra mussels will affect the fish negatively that feed on plankton in the open water but affect positively the fish which feed on invertebrates which are in the littoral zones.
The predictions by following the invasion of zebra muscles show that the number and growth rate of fish species in open water will decrease in population whereas the number and growth rate of fish species in the littoral zone will increase in population.
