The amount of DNA that is associated with each nucleosome is a approximately 200 bp. This is determined by treating chromatin wwith a certain enzyme that cuts DNA. This enzyme is called DNases. Every chromosome has hundred of thousands of nucleosomes that are joined by DNA strands that pass between them.

<u>Answer:</u>

A nucleosome is a structure that is consists of DNA wrapped around 8 sub-units of a protein namely the histone protein. There are packing of these materials around the proteins decide the transcription site of most of the RNA.

The amount of DNA that is packaged inbetween is about 1.7 turns of the DNA that contains 146 base pairs and about 20 base pairs are in between the turns which sums it to 166 base pairs associated with each nucleosome.

How does diploidy help to preserve genetic variation? see concept 23.4 (page 498)?
mario62 [17]
Monoploid organisms reproduce asexually since they need to transmit all of their genetic material to their offspring. Diploid organisms, have 2 copies of their genetic material that differ slightly in their genes. Since the progeny gets half of the DNA from each parent, we have that new combinations can emerge; for example, if the mother is AA for some allele and the father aa, their offspring will be Aa, a new genotype. This might have different implications (for example, the recessive gene for thalassemia also provides resistance to malaria). Finally, during meiosis, there is also an event called crossover that increases the genetic variation of the offspring.
