Answer:

C

Explanation:

Bauxite is the most common aluminum ore. Approximately 98% of primary aluminum production is based on bauxite. In the former Soviet Union, aluinite and kaolinite are also used in small proportions for aluminum production. Bauxite is a naturally occurring, heterogeneous material composed primarily of one or more aluminum hydroxide minerals plus various mixtures of silica, iron oxide, titania, and other impurities in trace amounts. The principal aluminum hydroxide minerals found in varying proportions within bauxite are gibbsite (trihydrated) and boehmite and diaspore (both monohydrated). The content of aluminum oxide is 30–60%. Bauxite is generally extracted by open cast mining from strata, typically 4–6 m thick under a shallow covering of topsoil and vegetation (Table I).

Sustancia formada por ADN y proteínas histonas que integra los cromosomas
Sauron [17]

Answer:

La cromatina

Explanation:

La cromatina es una sustancia dentro de un cromosoma que consta de ADN y proteína. El ADN lleva las instrucciones genéticas de la célula. Las principales proteínas de la cromatina son las histonas, que ayudan a empaquetar el ADN en una forma compacta que encaja en el núcleo celular.

La cromatina es un complejo altamente organizado de ADN y proteínas y es un componente principal del núcleo celular. Las proteínas histonas ayudan a organizar el ADN en unidades estructurales llamadas nucleosomas, que luego se ensamblan en una estructura compacta (cromatina) y, finalmente, en estructuras muy grandes de orden superior (cromosomas).

The perception of color and odor is determined by the combination of the receptor that catches the stimuli.
