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.

Provide explanations of genotypes and phenotypes.
Korvikt [17]
The phenotype is the physical appearance of an organism, while the Genotype is the genetic composition of an organism. Phenotype is observable and are the expression of the genes of an individual. So even the organism with the same species may differ, with a minute difference in their genotype. This is the main difference between the two.

We can notice one’s hair colour, eye colour, height, weight, skin colour, etc. but cannot look at genes responsible for these characters, so the observable physical look is the phenotype while the unnoticed genes responsible for such characters present in the DNA of cell of the individual is genotype.

To explain the above lines, here is the simple example of a pure red colour flowering plant (RR) is crossed with the white colour flowering plant (rr). The result of the Genotype of the F1 generation will be – Rr (Hybrid red colour), and the Phenotype of the F1 generation will be the – Red colour flowering plant.

Genotype and phenotype are the two very closely related and similar-sounding words, but their meaning is different. Our earth has a dynamic variety of organisms, present in soil, water and on land. But as the genome of each organism is different, and so there phenotypes also whether it’s their colour, height, weight or other morphological features.

a _____ is an organism that cannot produce its own food, so it must obtain its energy by eating or other organisms
AysviL [449]

Answer: Heterotrophs

Explanation: Heterotrophs, also known as other-feeders, can't capture light or chemical energy to make their own food out of carbon dioxide. Humans are heterotrophs. Instead, heterotrophs get organic molecules by eating other organisms or their byproducts. Animals, fungi, and many bacteria are heterotrophs.
