What is the function of histones- proteins that aide in dna replication

Biology
1 answer:
makkiz [27]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Nucleosomes in turn are wrapped into 30-nanometer fibers that form tightly packed chromatin. Histones prevent DNA from becoming tangled and protect it from DNA damage. In addition, histones play important roles in gene regulation and DNA replication. Without histones, unwound DNA in chromosomes would be very long.

Why does passive immunity for a new-born only lasts for a short time?​
diamong [38]
The recipient will only temporarily benefit from passive immunity for as long as the antibodies persist in their circulation. This type of immunity is short acting, and is typically seen in cases where a patient needs immediate protection from a foreign body and cannot form antibodies quickly enough independently.

Hope this helps!

When weather conditions are disrupted by El Nino how does this affect ocean nutrients
Setler [38]

Answer:

Oceans upwelling decreases, reducing levels of nutrient-rich water

Explanation:

Typically, trade winds blow from east to west in the Pacific pushing warm surface ocean waters towards Asia. This causes upwelling of cold ocean currents from the depths of the oceans on the west coast of South America bringing up nutrients from the depths.

During Elnino, however, these trade winds weaken, and predominant winds blow eastwards, reducing this upwelling of colder deeper waters.
