Question

In this chapter, we focused on how chromosomes are distributed during cell division, both in dividing somatic cells (mitosis) and in gamete- and spore-forming cells (meiosis). We found many opportunities to consider the methods and reasoning by which much of this information was acquired. From the explanations given in the chapter, answer the following questions.

How do we know that mitotic chromosomes are derived from chromatin?

Accepted Answer

Hey everyone. Let's take a look at this question together. Which of the following statements is true about chroma tin. So let's recall what we know about what chroma tin is to try to figure out which of the following statements is true. So we know that crow maten. So chroma tin is a mixture of D. N. A. As well as proteins that form the chromosomes found in humans as well as those higher you carry it. And we also know that it is inaccessible, two enzymes that are associated with transcription. And so looking at our answer choices which of the following is true. Well we know that it is a mixture of D. N. A. And proteins. So make sure of D. N. A. And protein. So answer choice is true. Answer choice B. It says chroma tin is accessible. Which we know is incorrect because it is not accessible. It is inaccessible to those enzymes associated with transcription. So answer choice B. Is incorrect. Answer choice C says chrome a tin can be found in the nuclear void of precarious and we know that answer choice C. Is also incorrect because it is only found in humans and higher eukaryotes and not pro carry outs. So answer choice C. Is incorrect. And lastly it cannot be answer choice D. Because it is not all the above and it is answer choice A. The correct answer. Because answer choice A says it is a mixture of D. N. A. And protein which we know that is a true statement about chroma tin. So answer choice A is the only statement that is listed here about chroma tin. That is true. So it is the correct answer.
