Which statement regarding DNA packing in eukaryotes is false?

Biology
1 answer:
nekit [7.7K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The correct answer is - A. Tight DNA packing tends to promote gene expression.

Explanation:

Euchromatin which is less packed or condensed is highly expressed as it participates in the transcription whereas highly compacted chromatin - heterochromatin not expressed at all as these does undergoes the transcription process.

DNA binds around a core of 8 subunits of Histone protein in a nucleosome in which DNA is negatively charged and histone protein is positively charged protein .

DNA packing decreases its transcription and hence no expression.

Which event marks the beginning of DNA replication?
Vinil7 [7]
<span>B is the correct answer. The beginning of DNA replication occurs with the unwinding of the DNA helix by a special enzyme. The two strands that form the helix then create a replication fork. The two strands are then oriented differently, one becoming the 'leading strand' and one the 'lagging strand'. </span>

1. Zygomycetes reproduce asexually through the haploid spores formed in , or sexually through diploid nuclei formed in .
g100num [7]

Answer:

  1. sporangia , zygospore
  2. Basidiomycota
  3. hyphae, mycellium
  4. lichen
  5. mycorrhiza
  6. Ascomycota

Explanation:

1. Zygomycetes reproduce asexually through the haploid spores formed in sporangia, or sexually through diploid nuclei formed in zygospore.

2. Basidiomycota are called club fungi because they produce club-shaped reproductive structures like toadstools.

3. The vegetative body of most fungi is called a hyphae, which consists of an interwoven mass of threadlike filaments called mycelium.

4.  A lichen is a symbiotic association between a fungus and a single-celled alga or cyanobacteria. The fungus protects the photosynthesizer from harsh conditions while consuming the extra nutrients it produces.

5. A mycorrhiza is a symbiotic association between a fungus and the roots of a plant. The fungus receives energy-rich sugar molecules produced by the plant while passing minerals and nutrients from the soil to the root.

6. Ascomycota, also known as sac fungi, include morels, yeasts, and the species that produces penicillin.

The LMand LNalleles at the MN blood-group locus exhibit codominance. Give the expected genotypes and phenotypes and their ratios
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Please find the expected genotypes and phenotypes of the progenies of each cross below.

Explanation:

In the MN blood-group locus of the gene, alleles LM and LN exhibit codominance i.e one allele is not dominant or recessive to the other, hence, they are both expressed when they occur in a heterozygous state (MN).

Considering the following crosses (find the punnet square attached);

a)LMLM x LMLN - The progeny are LMLM and LMLN in the genotypic ratio 1:1. Phenotypic ratio is Blood type M (1) : blood type MN (1)

b) LNLN x LNLN - The progeny are all LNLN offsprings with a phenotypic and genotypic ratio 4:0. All offsprings will have a blood type N (4)

c) LMLN x LMLN - The progenies are LMLM, LMLN and LNLN in the genotypic ratio 1:2:1 respectively. The phenotypic ratio is Blood type M (1) : L

Blood type MN (2) : Blood type N (1)

d) LMLN x LNLN - The progeny are LMLN and LNLN with genotypic ratio 1:1 and phenotypic ratio blood type MN (1) : blood type N (1)

e) LMLM x LNLN - The progeny are all LMLN offsprings with penotypic ratio blood type MN (4)
