Name:arrow_forwardWhat term best describes a entity with the following characteristics? in eukaryotes, a long, linear strand of double-helical DNA wrapped around nucleosomes, often with telomeres at each end and a single centromere near the middle Group of answer choices centrosomes chromatids chromosomes centriolesarrow_forward
- Which of the following statements about heterochromatin is FALSE? It contains many repeated sequences, but few actively transcribed genes. It remains condensed through most of the cell cycle. It is found next to the centromeres and on short arms in human chromosomes. It is enriched for transposable elments Histone proteins in heterochromatin are heavily acetylated, reducing their affinity for the DNA backbone.arrow_forwardList in each blank the description of events associated with each stage of mitosis in addition to the preparatory stage Interphase. Some events and structures occur only in plant cells and some in animal cells. Mark these events in the list with an asterisk.arrow_forwardDescribe the appearance and composition of chromatin and the structure of nucleosomes. Comment on the significance of histone proteins.arrow_forward
- DNA replication is a process that involves copying the DNA molecule. If a single base was miscopied, what would be a possible result of this for the cell in which it happened? Top of Form All the proteins the cell creates from the miscopied strand will do different jobs than the old ones. If the new sequence codes for the same amino acid as the original cell, it will function normally. Both new DNA strands will end up together in a new cell, and the inaccurate one will be discarded. Any miscopied DNA will be replaced with an accurate DNA copy once the cell divides.arrow_forwardDescribe chromatin and how it changes.arrow_forwardChromatin of eukaryotes is organized into repeating interactions with protein octamers called nucleosomes. Nucleosomes are composed of DNA and multiple histone proteins cohesins telomerase kinetochore proteinsarrow_forward
