If a molecule of DNA has 200 pairs how do the DNA molecules fit into the cell?

DNA is able to fit into a cell because of its shape. DNA is a double helix that can bend and twist in all sorts of directions. An easier example to visualize is a spaghetti noodle in a bowl. Stretched out straight, it wouldn’t fit in the bowl, but once coiled or twisted up, it would conform to the shape of sand bowl. Well, DNA can coil up just like a noodle can, which gives it the ability to become compact enough to fit into the nucleus of a cell. The way DNA molecules can all fit into the cell is because they coil around histone proteins, which once in a tight enough coil, become nucleosomes which can stack to then become chromatin. That is how about 6 feet of DNA can be squeezed into a microscopic cell.

lys-0071 [83]

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

  • going to a tailor and having a suit made to fit you
  • selecting a lottery prize-winner by means of a random drawing
  • going to a shoe store and trying on shoes until you find a pair that fits
  • ordering the lunch special at a restaurant without looking at the menu
  • picking out a video that you haven't seen yet

Answer:

Going to a shoe store and trying on shoes until you find a pair that fits

Explanation:

Antibodies are the immunoglobulin molecules secreted by the B cells which help the body providing the immunity as they interact with the antigen and help immune system to produce a response.

The variety of the B cells are produced by the body in response to different antigens which produce different type of antibodies. This interaction of antigen and antibodies is known as the complementation and just appear like if you are going to a shop to buys a pair of shoes and tries different shoes  to find the best shoe of best size.

Thus, the selected option is correct.

Describe the rock cycle. Discuss what can happen to rock material within the
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

The rock cycle is a constant transformation of rocks between the three rock types of igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic. If the sediments are buried behind other layers of sediment, they can lithify and form sedimentary rock. When rocks melt, magma is formed. Rocks form deep below the Earth, move and sometimes change, rise to the surface, and eventually return to their original location.

Which statements describe the movement of blood through the heart? Check all that apply. 
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

The correct answer would be Atria push blood into the ventricles and Ventricles push blood out of the heart.

In humans, four chambered heart is present with two atria and two ventricles.

Deoxygenated blood from all over the body is passed into the right atrium through vena cava (superior and inferior).

Simultaneously, oxygenated blood from the lungs is passed into the left atrium of the heart with the help of pulmonary vein.

Both the atria contract at the same time to drain their blood into respective ventricles.

The ventricles undergo relaxation while receiving blood.

The valves present between the atria and ventricles (tricuspid and bicuspid valve) ensures that the blood flows in one way direction only. They shut down as the ventricles contract and produce the sound "lub".

The ventricles contract simultaneously to pump blood out of the heart. The right ventricle pumps deoxygenated blood into pulmonary artery which takes the blood to the lungs for oxygenation.

The left ventricle passes the oxygenated blood through aorta to all the parts of the body.

The pulmonary and aortic valves prevent the back flow of blood and shut at the same time which creates second sound called as "dub".
