Biology

solmaris [256]2 years ago

In the nucleus of each cell, the DNA molecule is packaged into thread-like structures called chromosomes. Each chromosome is made up of DNA tightly coiled many times around proteins called histones that support its structure.

Chromosomes are not visible in the cell’s nucleus—not even under a microscope—when the cell is not dividing. However, the DNA that makes up chromosomes becomes more tightly packed during cell division and is then visible under a microscope. Most of what researchers know about chromosomes was learned by observing chromosomes during cell division.

What is occurring during the s phase of the cell cycle?
Ghella [55]
The S phase of a cell cycle occurs during interphase, before mitosis or meiosis, and is responsible for the synthesis or replication of DNA. In this way, the genetic material of a cell is doubled before it enters mitosis or meiosis, allowing there to be enough DNA to be split into daughter cells.

Page 7e) Mrs. karki deposited a sum of money 7aa in a bank at the rate of 5 90 per year Simple interest. T. She received an inte
Andre45 [30]

The principal money Mrs Karki deposited in the bank was

= Rs 1339

Simple interest (Si) received = Rs 4,740

Time (t)= 6 years

Rate (r)= 59%

Therefore the principal amount (p) =

p = \frac{si \times 100}{r \times t}

where,

p =  \frac{4740 \times 100}{59 \times 6}

p =  \frac{474000}{354}

p = 1339

Therefore, the principal money Mrs Karki deposited in the bank was = Rs 1339
