DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is known to be the genetic material for almost all organisms. It is tightly packed within the nucleus of every cell and wraps around the unique proteins known as histone. These histones form the loops of DNA called nucleosomes.

Further Explanation:

The genetic information is known to be packaged in 23 sets of chromosomes. In these, histones which are the proteins that aid the molecule of DNA to be very tightly packed in added and also aids in maintaining the double-helical structure of the DNA.

The thread-like structure provided in the diagram is known as chromosome. Chromosomes are found in the nucleus and it is composed up of protein as well as single molecule of DNA. The bunch like structures present is known as nucleosomes that are considered to be the basic unit of the DNA packaging.

The histone units make the structural units of the nucleosome and these units and bounded in the tight helical fiber. Finally, is the structure of DNA, which is known to be the genetic material.

I assume this photo has the labels you are talking about.

DNA double helix consists of two strands that wind around each other with their nucleotides liked.-> it's the structure number 5
nucleosome- it's a segment of DNA wound in sequence around eight histones (proteins)- number 2
Histone- proteins with DNA around them, forming the nucleosome- number 4
Tight helical fiber- chromatin coiled very tightly- 3
Cromosome- chromatin condensed even tighter forming a X shape.- 1

What are cofactors to enzymes

Vesna [10]

Answer:

Some enzymes require the addition of another non-protein molecule to function as an enzyme. These are known as cofactors, and without these enzymes remain within the inactive.

Compare and contrast the effects of inavasive species, speciation and extinction biodiversity

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

Modern invasive species are characterized by broad environmental tolerances, which contribute to their ability to survive during both the transport and establishment phases of invasion. Studies of modern and invasive species have demonstrated that invader species regularly displace native species through higher resource efficiency or competitive ability. A striking feature of the biogeographic pattern is the differential survival of species with large geographic ranges. Species with larger geographic ranges tend, on average, to have broader ecological tolerances than those with small ranges.
