Water is the only substance found naturally in all three states on Earth's surface.
Given below are two statements: Statement I: In prokaryotes, the positively charged DNA is held with some negatively charged proteins in a region called nucleoid. Statement II: In eukaryotes, the negatively charged DNA is wrapped around the positively charged histone octamer to form nucleosome. Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Both Statement I and Statement II are true.
Both Statement I and Statement II are false.
Statement I is correct but Statement II is false.
Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is true.
To solve this problem, we need to analyze the given statements:Statement I: In prokaryotes, the positively charged DNA is held with some negatively charged proteins in a region called nucleoid.Statement II: In eukaryotes, the negatively charged DNA is wrapped around the positively charged histone octamer to form nucleosome.Let's break down each statement:Statement I: - In prokaryotes, DNA is not associated with histones as in eukaryotes. Instead, it is associated with non-histone proteins.
