Answer:

Yes, these are correct.

Explanation:

Bacterial conjugation is the bacterial counterpart of sexual reproduction. Also known as horizontal gene transfer, it involves the transfer of genetic material from one F+ or Hfr bacterium to another F+ or F- bacterium.
The F or fertility factor is a crucial component of the bacterial plasmid and it accounts for the development of sex pili which are important for conjugation. An F+ cells contains the F-factor incorporated into its plasmid, whereas an F- cell lacks the F-factor and therefore cannot participate in conjugation.
Conjugation between an F+ and F- cell can result in the transfer of the F-factor to the F- bacterium.
An Hfr bacterium contains F-factor incorporated into its circular genome.

Protein Folding Notes

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

"Protein folding occurs in a cellular compartment called the endoplasmic reticulum. This is a vital cellular process because proteins must be correctly folded into specific, three-dimensional shapes in order to function correctly. Unfolded or misfolded proteins contribute to the pathology of many diseases."

For average organism, heavy digestion (overnight with an excess of enzyme) of chromatin with micrococcal nuclease would yield a

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

150 - 300 bp

Explanation:

Micrococcal nuclease, indistinctly from the time of treatment and in average organisms, will realize the cuts on DNA o RNA zones rich in AT or AU. It is not a specific endonuclease.

Even so, the mean size of the expected fragments will have between 150 bp and 300 bp.

It is very important to run your digestion along with a proper label.
