the structure of an animal's cell and how it is used to study it

This picture shows the organization of chromatin including DNA's double helix structure and how DNA winds around core particles to form nucleosomes. From there, the DNA continues to wind upon its self until a chromosome is created. The function of genes in DNA is to code for the creation of proteins to be used in the body. A genome is all the genes one person has. For example, the human genome is approx. 30-35,000 genes. (Picture obtained from McGraw-Hill Connect).

Chromatin structure: a repeating unit of histones and DNA.There are five types of histone proteins — H1; H2A, H2B, H3and H4. Four of them (H2A, H2B, H3and H4) occur in pairs to produce histone octamer, called nu body or core of nucleosome.strands of Dna wrapped around histone octamers forming nucleosomes,which to be organized into chromatin,the building block of a chromosome.

Organization of chromatin structure👇 📎Examination of chromatin under the electron microscope (above right) reveals that DNA is associated with small globes of proteins termed nucleosomes, giving the appearance of beads on a string. 📎The DNA double-helix (above left, red) is wrapped ~1.7 times around each nucleosome, which consists of a core (yellow) formed as an octamer of four different histone molecules (each present in two copies); often an additional histone, H1 (green), is located on…
