उत्तर

Sr. no Euchromatin Heterchromatin
1. It is a loosely packed region of chromatin. It is a densely packed region of DNA.
2. It stains light. It stains dark.
3. Euchromatin is a transcriptionally active chromatin region. Heterochromatin is a transcriptionally nearly dormant portion of the genome.

Read the following and answer from given below:

In prokaryotes, DNA is circular and present in the cytoplasm but in eukaryotes, DNA is linear and mainly confined to the nucleus. DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is a long polymer of nucleotides. In 1953, the first correct double-helical structure of DNA was worked out by Watson and Crick. Based on the X-ray diffraction data produced by Maurice Wilkins and Rosalind Franklin. It is composed of three components, i.e., A phosphate group, a deoxyribose sugar, and a nitrogenous base. Different forms of DNA are B-DNA, Z-DNA, A-DNA, C-DNA, and D-DNA.

The double helix structure of DNA was proposed by ______ 


Read the following and answer from given below:

The process of copying genetic information from the template strand of DNA into RNA is called transcription. It is mediated by RNA polymerase. Transcription takes place in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. In transcription, only a segment of DNA and only one of the strands is copied into RNA.

Monocistronic structural genes are found in which organisms?


Read the following and answer from given below:

The translation is the process of polymerization of amino acids to form a polypeptide. The order and sequence of amino acids are defined by the sequence bases in the mRNA. The amino acids are joined by a bond called a peptide bond. The ribosome is the site of protein synthesis.
