उत्तर

The number of base pairs present around a histone octamer of nucleosome is 146.

Explanation:

The nucleosome core particle is formed when 146 base pairs of DNA wrap about 1.65 turns around a histone octamer (two each of H2A, H2B, H3 and H4). This wrapping compacts DNA and is the basic repeating unit of chromatin; linker DNA of variable length connects adjacent nucleosomes.
