Nucleosome positioning along the DNA can influence where transcriptional regulatory proteins are able to bind DNA. If a nucleosome is bound to an enhancer sequence, it may outcompete a regulatory protein from binding the same sequence. Conversely, if an enhancer sequence is in the linker DNA where the nucleosome is absent, the regulatory protein does not have to compete with the nucleosome. The position of the nucleosome can alter the accessibility of a sequence of DNA to DNA binding proteins. Suppose that this region of DNA contained several enhancer sequences that bind highly conserved regulatory proteins to stimulate transcription of a gene in this region, and that binding is more efficient when the enhancer sequence isnot associated with a nucleosome. Use this information to complete these sentences.1. Fill in the blanks with the appropriate words. Words may be used more than once. a. Fall within linker DNAb. fewerc. be bound by nucleosomesd. moreSince sea urchins have longer linker DNA segments than Drosophila melanogaster, when this region of DNA is moved to the sea urchin it is likely that these enhancer sequences will. Withenhancer sequences available in sea urchins to bind regulatory proteins that stimulate transcription, the same region of DNA will likely generateRNA transcripts.

In eukaryotes, genetic information is passed to the next generation by processes that include mitosis or meiosis. which of the explanations identifies the correct process and supports the claim that heritable information is passed from one generation to another? a. mitosis, followed by cytokinesis, produces daughter cells that are genetically different from the parent cell, thus insuring variation within the population. b. during mitosis, dna replication occurs twice within the cell cycle to insure a full set of chromosomes within each of the daughter cells produced. c. in asexual reproduction, a single individual is the sole parent and passes copies of its genes to its offspring without the fusion of gametes. d. single-celled organisms can fuse their cells, reproducing asexually through mitosis to form new cells that are not identical to the parent cell.

Punnett squares are used to show possible combinations of alleles or to predict the probability of a trait occurring in offspring. an incomplete dominance cross is performed between a bird that is homozygous for red feathers and a bird that is homozygous for blue feathers. purple offspring result. then, two of the purple offspring are crossed. according to the punnett square for this cross, how many of the offspring from the second cross will have a feather color that results from incomplete dominance? 1 in 4 2 in 4 3 in 4 4 in 4

Imagine a self-reactive t cell that has not undergone clonal deletion in the thymus (that is to say, it has escaped central tolerance). if it encounters self antigen in the absence of an infection or inflammation, what will happen to this self-reactive t cell? (select two answers) (a) the t cell undergoes clonal expansion. (b) the t cell gains effector functions. (c) the t cell undergoes apoptosis. (d) the t cell becomes activated. (e) the t cell becomes anergic.
