Ans.
Chromatin molecules are made up of DNA and histone proteins. Modification of chromatin structure include covalent, post-translational changes in histone proteins, present in chromation. Acetylation and methylation are two important histone modifications that affect structure of chromatin molecules.
Acetylation involves addition of an acetyl group to histones that increases transcription of DNA by loosen the association between DNA and nucleosome.
Methylation involves addition of a methyl group to histones that results in condensation of chromatin molecule and thus, decreases transcription of DNA.
Both acetylation and methylation are reversible processes.
Many chromatin modifications are genetic, means they can pass from one generation to another generation, called epigenetic modifications.
Thus, options B), C), D), E), and F).
Based on the salient features and the laboratories of this patient, this is a case of Crohn's disease. Crohn's disease is type of chronic inflammatory bowel disease or IBD along with ulcerative colitis. Crohn's disease usually presents with diarrhea, abdominal pain, and significant weight loss. Pathologically, it is characterized by "skip-lesions" or discontinuous granulomatous that occurs on all layers of the bowel (transmural); with the involvement of the whole gastrointestinal tract. Patients with Crohn's disease have a significant risk in developing colorectal cancer.

Answer:
The correct answer is - per gram, the marathon runner's muscles would contain more myoglobin than the sprinter's muscles.
Explanation:
Marathon runners have smaller leg muscles and thinner quads and calves as marathon runners require slow-twitch muscles while in sprinters the fast-twitch muscle requires. Slow-twitch muscles of marathon runners have more amount of myoglobin, per gram than fast-twitch muscles.
Myoglobin acts as local oxygen storage that provides oxygen to the muscles in case of less oxygen supply than required temporarily and a marathon race is an intense exercise or activity that requires more oxygen.
Answer:
The correct answers are A and B.
Explanation:
Pleiotropy is defined as "when a single gene affects two or more phenotypic characteristic of an organism.". Phenotypic refers to the traits that can be physically observed or measured in an organism, for example height, hair color etc. So the examples of pleiotropy in the given options are in A and B which describe situations where one gene affects two or more phenotypic traits.
I hope this answer helps.
