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.

Difference between cytoplasm ans cell sap?
Ludmilka [50]
Cell saps are the liquid inside of a plant cell's large central vacuole, which acts as support in order for it to function. They're made up of amino acids, glucose, salts and water and plays an important role in osmosis.
Cytoplasms, on the other hand, are a jelly-like substance between the cell membrane and nuclear envelope within a eukaryotic cell. They're mostly made up of water and salt, and aid in growth and metabolism in a cell.

Which statement describes experimental evidence?
Xelga [282]

Answer:

Results are validated when other scientists performs the same experiment and conclude with the same result.

Explanation:

Experimental evidence gives confirmation especially in science.Scientists starts an experiment by following some protocols such as observation,hypothesis,collection of data literature review,methodology,Experiments (trial and tests) finally results and discussion.Results are validated as experimental evidence. Eventually come to a conclusion.
