Zina [86]

Explanation:

This is most likely the reason why the transgene is not expressed in the fifth cell line. It is likely that the transgene was integrated into a heterochromatic region of the genome. Heterochromatin consists of genetically inactive satellite sequences, and many of these are repressed to various extents. Moreover, because this is a tightly packed form of DNA or condensed DNA, it is inaccesible to polymerases and thus not transcribed.

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

As the Earth moves in relative to the moon the Earth blocks part of the sun from the moon causing only parts of the moon to light up. This BEST answers the question because B is not accurate because it doesn't describe why we actually SEE it. A might be true but it is not the BEST explained.
