The answer is 25 degree, because when the sun is directly overhead, its rays strike the earth at a 90 degree angle. The closer to 90 degrees the rays are, the more concentrated they are and the greater is the heat they produce on the earth's surface. The solar heat reach the surface of the earth becomes less intense as the angles of the rays decreases.

Areas near the North or South Pole, receive sunlight at a smaller angle, because of Earth’s spherical shape. At smaller angles, the sunlight is less intense because it spreads out over more area, and temperature are cooler, so is 25

When DNA is compacted by histones into 10-nm and 30-nm fibers, the DNA is unable to interact with proteins required for gene exp
poizon [28]

Answer:

This is through the process of methylation and phosphorylation of histones tails.

Explanation:

The addition of   a methyl group  to the amino acid of the histones of the  nucleosomes   that compacted DNA  in the nucleus is  called mehtylation, while the addtion of phodpahte is phosphorylation

Its  effects  on  gene expression depends on the number of <u> methyl groups, and type of amino acid that  methylated. During transcription. </u>

<u />

The DNA double strands are compacted and therefore  hidden  from transcription factors and enzymes of transcription by the hitones  tails of the neuclosomes, Methylation  weaken the binding bonds between the tails and DNA structure ; thereby aiding the uncoiling of DNA  from the  tails.(nucleosomes).This chemical  reaction  aided  DNA  strands  exposure   to transcription factors and enzymes, for initiation of transcription. This explains the dyanmic activity of methylation

Futhermore phophorylation also favours unwrapping of DNA, by imitating   modifying enzymes e.g H3Y41E and H3T45E  and convert it to→→ H3Y41phopspahte to aid DNA unwrapping and accessibility to  transcription factors and RNA polymerase Enzymes,

16.Globular proteins fold up into compact, spherical structures that have uneven surfaces. They tend to form
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:(a)elastase

Explanation:

Elastase is a protease enzyme the function involves the cleavage of peptide bonds after amino acids with small side chains. This is responsible for cleaving the peptide bonds between the elastin fibers and aids in digestion of the elastic protein.

Thus the elastase cleaves the protein fibers this can be said that the elastase is a non-fibrous protein.
