Why is it necessary for the genetic material in a cell to exist in chromatin form during normal cellular activity, and not in ch

romosome form?
a)It requires more surface area in the cell to have the cells condense. b)Condensing into chromosome form requires more energy than the cell has to exert.
c) Chromatin prevents genetic material from being broken off during replication. d)Chromatin form allows the genetic code to be read and proteins to be made.

D- During interphase, when the cell is not dividing, chromatin is less tightly packed compared to our chromosomes, which allows transcription to occur.

Answer:

d) Chromatin form allows the genetic code to be read and proteins to be made.

Explanation:

Chromatin:

It is the structure of DNA along with histone proteins that are not in condensed form. This structure is further made up of Euchromatin which is loosely packed and Heterochromatin which is tightly packed. Chromatin especially Euchromatin allows the genetic code to be read by polymerase enzymes and proteins to be synthesized.

Chromosome:

It is a highly condensed structure of DNA and histone proteins which is seen during cell division. This structure of heredity material is adopted for the proper segregation of alleles during cell division.

Best choice:

d) Chromatin form allows the genetic code to be read and proteins to be made.

Answer:

Genetic diversity is important because it helps maintain the health of a population because a diverse set of alleles that can be valuable in resisting diseases, pests and other stresses. If the environment changes, a population that has a higher variability of alleles will be better able to evolve to adapt to the new environment and therefore survive longer. Hope this helps!

The field of paleontology changed naturalist's views of biodiversity by showing?
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer: alternative A.

Explanation: Fixism was a current theory during biology history, and it stated that species were always like they are at the present time, not being able to change during time. Darwin's evolutionary theory, developed at the 19th century, said the opposite: species were able to change and they still do it. One way to prove it was <u>studying fossils and its morfologycal characteristics in order to link them to more recent species</u>, and <u>establish a taxonomical connection between them</u>. The study of fossils is know as paleontology, and it this way it changed the naturalist's views.
