Answer:

Their function is to package DNA into structural units called nucleosomes. Histones are the main proteins in chromatin. Chromatin is a combination of DNA and protein which makes up the contents of a cell nucleus. Because DNA wraps around histones, they also play a role in gene regulation.

I hope this helped and is the right answer.

The greenhouse and enhanced greenhouse effects refer to the return of approximately ______ percent and greater than ______ perce
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

The greenhouse and enhanced greenhouse effects refer to the return of approximately <u>80</u> percent and greater than <u>80</u> percent of the heat radiated by Earth.

Explanation:

During natural greenhouse effect :

. Solar radiation reaches the earth

. Re-radiation of heat occurs

. Less re-emitted heat

. More heath escapes into space

Hence the greenhouse effect refers to return of 80% of heat radiated by Earth.

While during Human Enhanced Greenhouse effect :

. Solar radiation reaches earth

. Re-radiation of heat occurs

. More re-emitted heat

. Less heat escapes into space

Hence the enhanced greenhouse effect refers to return of more than 80% of heat radiated by Earth .

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

a. commensalism is the correct answer.

Explanation:

By growing on the trunk or branch of a tree, a lichen gains height and exposure to sunlight for photosynthesis. The tree is not harmed by the lichen but does not benefit either. The relationship between the lichen and the tree is commensalism.

Commensalism is a relationship between two organisms where one organism gets benefits from other organisms without causing any harm or any damage from the relation as it one side symbiotic relation.

In this, we can see lichen is getting benefits from the tree.

for example, lichen is getting following benefits from the tree such as ( a lichen gains height and exposure to sunlight for photosynthesis.) and they are causing any harm to tree neither any benefits so this is a one-side symbiotic relation and thus the relationship is an example of commensalism.

const2013 [10]
The data given are 
            melting point            density 
<span>Zinc        419.53 oC              7.134
Nickel      1455oC                 8.912
Copper  1084.62oC              8.96
Silver        961.78oC           10.501
Gold        1064.18oC          19.282

density is the mass per unit volume. Melting point is determined by the intermolecular forces between particles in the solids.
We </span>have been asked to find which cube weighs the most 
density = mass/volume 
when volume is constant for all the metals, then density is directly proportional to mass. Therefore metal with highest density has the highest mass.
from the given metals, metal with highest density is Gold.
correct answer is Gold.
