Histone modification: is fixed; once a histone is modified, it stays that way and the genes with which it is associated are turn

ed on or off permanently. is random and independent of the environment or cell type. is fixed, but this has no effect on whether genes are expressed. can change over time in response to environmental cues, allowing genes to be turned on or off as needed. can change over time in response to environmental cues, but this has no effect on gene expression.

Answer:

The correct answer is ''can change over time in response to environmental cues, allowing genes to be turned on or off as needed.''

Explanation:

Histones are a family of proteins involved in compacting DNA into structural units called nucleosomes. Histone modifications occur in response to environmental conditions, and modulate the structure of chromatin, that is, they alter the structure of nucleosomes and therefore chromatin, and thus activate the transcription process, in which the chromatin is in the euchromatin state (loose conformation, in which the DNA information can be read), or "off" state, in which the chromatin adopts the heterochromatin conformation (compact conformation, which prevents reading), respectively. These post-translational modifications are mainly acetylation, methylation, phosphorylation, although there are many others. These make up the “histone code” that can change the expression pattern of some genes by modifying the chromatin structure, activating or silencing these genes.

You slowly develop eyelid drooping and muscle weakness. You go to the doctor and she believes you display classic symptoms of KS
Anika [276]

Answer:

The answer is D) Another biopsy from a distinct site may show a different result.

Explanation:

In molecular biology southern blot is used to detect a specific sequence of DNA. Mitochondria are energy producing organelles in the cell and they possess DNA that is inherited only from the mother. Although Southern blot is the classic method used to detect large deletions in mitochondrial DNA, it is not always sensitive enough to detect heteroplasmic deletions at low levels leading to results that are not always reliable. Heteroplasmy refers to the presence of more than one mitochondrial DNA in an individual. The presence of a mutation in the mitochondrial DNA can create an intracellular heteroplasmic mix of mutant and normal mitochondrial DNA. Cells with a higher rate of cell division like blood can yield inconclusive results in southern analysis because heteroplasmy favors wild type mitochondrial DNA. Thus, non-dividing cells such as muscle cells are preferred for the analysis.

What type of hypothesis is demonstrated by the following statement? "There will be no difference in the number of adverse events
beks73 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D. "Null hypothesis".

Explanation:

Null hypothesis is characterized by stating that there is no difference between the specified populations, which is the opposite of the alternative hypothesis that states that there is a difference between the populations. Since the hypothesis included in the question states that "There will be no difference in the number of adverse events...", it  is concluded that is an example of null hypothesis.
