1. How does the principle of independent assortment apply to chromosomes?
Evgen [1.6K]
<span>1) It is the chromosomes, however, that assort independently, not individual genes.

2) </span> <span>It tells you they're really far apart.
You see, there's this phenomenon called crossing over. Chunks of DNA get randomly swapped between homologous chromosomes. If two genes are close together they're usually swapped together and if they're far apart (say, on opposite ends) they're probably never going to be swapped together because half a chromosome doesn't normally cross over at once.
</span>
3)  <span>Sexual reproduction, because it results in offspring that combine alleles from two different individuals. </span>

<span>(Crossover is fine and dandy and you should mention it, but you'd get a C if you didn't mention that two different individuals are contributing genetic material to the offspring)</span>

Which best describes how DNA fits inside a cell nucleus?
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

The correct answer is - DNA tightly coils around proteins and condenses into chromosomes, which fit in the nucleus.

Explanation:

The chromatin reticulum is present in the undivided cells, which condenses to form a rod-like form called a chromosome. The chromosome consists of DNA structures.

That DNA is a double helical structure and acidic in nature and it is present inside the chromosomes as it is coiled around histone protein which is basic in nature. That allows the DNA to fits in the nucleus.

Thus, the 3rd statement is the correct answer.
