You perform an experiment in which chromatin is isolated from sea urchin sperm cells and briefly digested with micrococcal nucle

ase. When the chromatin proteins are removed and the resulting purified DNA is analyzed by gel electrophoresis, you observe a series of DNA fragments that are multiples of 260 base pairs in length (that is, 260 bp, 520 bp, 780 bp, and so forth). a) Although these results differ somewhat from the typical results discussed in the chapter, explain why they still point to the likely existence of nucleosomes in this cell type. b) What can you conclude about the amount of DNA that is associated with each nucleosome

Answer:

a) DNA fragments associated with histone proteins are all multiple in length (i.e., 260 bp, 520 bp, 780 bp, etc), thereby suggesting the presence of a pattern of organization in the chromatin  

b) it suggests that each unit of organization (ie, each nucleosome) consists of 260 bp associated with chromatin proteins

Explanation:

The nucleosome is considered as the basic unit of chromatin. A nucleosome consists of approximately two turns of DNA wrapped around a core of eight histone proteins (i.e., a histone octamer). The histone octamer consists of two copies of each of the histones H2A, H2B, H3, and H4. Moreover, the nucleosomes are connected together by linker DNA sequences which vary between 10 and 100 bp in length.

Tasya [4]

In a human diploid somatic cell (2n), there are 22 chromosomes present in two copies and 1 pair of sex chromosomes. This means there are 23 pairs of chromosomes - 22 pairs of autosomes and 1 pair of sex chromosomes. There are in total 46 chromosomes (23 pairs in 2 copies: 23 × 2 = 46).

50,880,000,000,000 in scientific notation
viva [34]

Answer:

5.088⋅10^10

Explanation:

First, we will put a decimal point at the end of number 50880000000.

In order to write number 50880000000. in scientific notation we need to move the decimal point from its current location (black dot) to the new position (red dot).

5.0880000000.

So, we need to move decimal point 10 places to the right.

This means that the power of 10 will be positive 10.

Now we have that the

Number part = 5.0880000000 ( which can be written as 5.088 ) and

Exponent part = 10
