Ch. 10 - DNA Structure and Analysis

Chapter 10, Problem 1

In this chapter, we first focused on the information that showed DNA to be the genetic material and then discussed the structure of DNA as proposed by Watson and Crick. We concluded the chapter by describing various techniques developed to study DNA. Along the way, 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, what answers would you propose to the following fundamental questions: How do we know that DNA also serves as the genetic material in eukaryotes such as humans?

Hello everyone here we have a question telling us. Pro carry out store their D. N. A. In the blank. While you carry out house the D. N. A. In the blank we have a nucleus and cytoplasm. This is incorrect because pro carry outs don't have nucleus. You carry out to use the nucleus and not the cytoplasm as a repository for their D. N. A. So A. Is incorrect B mitochondria and mitochondria. This is incorrect because the mitochondria is an organ L. Responsible for converting chemical energy to a TPM nucleus. It is not where D. N. A. Is stored in either pro carry outs or gyu carry outs. See nuclear Lloyd and nucleus. This is correct. Pro carry outs don't possess the membrane bound organelles so they store their D. N. A. Inside the nucleus that float in the cytoplasm. And you carry out store the D. N. A. In the nucleus. But let's look at our last answer. D. Cytoplasm and nucleus. This is incorrect. Cytoplasm doesn't hold the D. N. A. And pro carry outs. It is nucleotides that flow inside the cytoplasm. So D. Is incorrect. So are correct option Here is c nuclear oid nucleus. Thank you for watching. Bye.
