Answer:

Darwin proposed the theory of natural selection to explain the process of evolution. According to Darwin’s theory of natural selection, all organisms have the potential to reproduce limitlessly irrespective of the fact that each species maintain a constant density over time. However, the struggle for existence, i.e. the competition among individuals for available resources to survive and reproduce, put a check on species density (D) and maintains it at a constant level (B). Survival of fittest is unequal ability of individuals to survive and reproduce based on suitability of their inherited characters to prevailing environmental conditions (A). It imparts the reproductive advantage to certain organisms which account for major part of the gene pool of the species. Thus, natural selection favors the individual with survival and/or reproductive advantage over others under existing environmental condition (E). Thus, the correct answer is option C.

Although the proteins that cause the E. coli chromosome to coil are not histones, what property would you expect them to share w
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

Positively charged ions

Explanation:

Histones are a group of proteins with a N-terminal end of an amino acid, that binds to the DNA in the nucleus helping it to condense into Chromatin. DNA wraps around a core of proteins to initially form the NUCLEOSO ME structure, which is the basic subunit of Chromatin. Each nucleosome is made up of DNA coiled around two copies (2) of proteins- H2A, H2B, H3 and H4, to form a set of eight proteins called histone octamer.

Due to the phosphate group (PO4-) embedded in the DNA molecule, they assume a negative charge. The positively charged ions of the N(C) terminal end of histones which arise from the amino acid group they contain allows it to bind tightly to negatively charged DNA i.e. the more positively and negatively charged the histone and DNA are respectively, the tighter the binding.

Due to this property, the proteins that binds to DNA in E.coli, should possess a positive charge in similarity to histones in eukaryotes.

Justine took a sip of milk and immediately spat it out because she realized it had soured. Which path did messages in her nervou
vlada-n [284]

The tongue has a lot of taste buds on it. These taste buds contain the sensory receptors that respond to the food particles. The sensory receptors emit an electrical signal that is carried by the sensory neurons present in the tongue to the brain. The brain has a lot of inter-neurons that help in processing the signal and form bridge between the sensory and motor neurons. The brain analyses and decodes the taste from the electrical signal and relays an output through the motor neurons to the muscles present in the tongue and the cheeks to spit the sour milk out.
