artcher [175]3 years ago

A trait is a characteristic, such as color or size, that is inherited by an offspring from its parents. The genes that control a trait come in pairs, one gene from each parent. We represent these gene pairs by writing a combination of two letters. For example, if one parent contributes a gene for blue eyes (c), and other parent contributes a gene for brown eyes(C), then we write the offspring’s eye color trait as Cc. This combination, of the two genes that determine the trait, is called a genotype. If gene pair contains a dominant allele, the the offspring will show this dominant trait

Answer:

The correct answer is case-control study.

vodomira [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is option b. "20 H1, 40 H2A".

Explanation:

Chromatin is a complex that protects and condenses the genetic material comprised of DNA and proteins. When chromatin is in the form of a 30 nm fibril, nucleosomes have a regular positioning along the DNA. This means that each nucleosome is associated with a single H1 molecule. Therefore a chromatin containing 20 nucleosomes will have 20 copies of H1 and 40 copies of H2A, because each nucleosome has 2 copies of the core histone H2A.
