DNA is twisted in a double helix, then wrapped around proteins and condensed into chromosomes. This "packaging” is what allows a six-foot-long DNA molecule to fit into the nucleus of a tiny cell.

The DNA is ultimately wound up really tightly around a group of proteins known as histones. This then forms loops of DNA which are called nucleosomes. The nucleosomes then coil and stack on top of each other to form fibers called chromatin - these then form larger loops and coils to form chromosomes.

Sever21 [200]

Answer

1. The writing utensil’s placement facilitates the drawing of two or more lines with a single stroke of the pantograph. This means while drawing an image two or more copies of varying sizes may be created at the same time. The pantograph mirror is used to extend or retract an image.

2. The operation of a pantograph relates to dilations and similarity in that both of the processes are done on the graph and it is possible to use similar triangles through measuring the size of the triangles. Pantograph contains links that maybe arranged in other ways because they contain a parallelogram.

3. You can use similar triangles to describe the working of the pantograph because the ratio of similitude is set when determining where to put the pin. When one triangle is moved with the part being specific to the point (tracing style), along the outline of the image, an enlarged/reduced version of the image is created by movement of the other triangle (drawing stylus point).


4. Pantograph has been replaced by modern ways of producing duplicates such as photocopying, mass printing and digital filing. This is because the technique is currently outdated and the fact that it is difficult to use then now due to their complex designs which does not allow users to properly grip an actual writing utensil like the pen.
