Two varieties of maize averaging 25 and 125 inches in height, respectively, are crossed. The F1 progeny is quite uniform averaging 75 inches in height. Of the 500 F2 plants, the Shortest 2 is 25 inches and the tallest 2 are 125 inches. What will be number phenotype observe in F2 progeny and number of polygene contribute for that character respectively?

You want to study the potential interaction between nucleosome-bound DNA and a specific histone deacetylase. You decide to perform an electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA). You use a 32P end-labelled, linear template DNA that contains two nucleosome positioning sites. You assemble two nucleosomes on the DNA template before incubation with and without the histone deacetylase. For some reactions, you use unmodified nucleosomes. For other reactions, you use nucleosomes that are methylated at lysine 36 of the histone protein H3.

A. The histone deacetylase binds nucleosome bound-DNA in lanes 1, 2, 3, and 4.

B. The histone deacetylase binds nucleosome bound-DNA in lanes 3& 4.

C. The histone deacetylase seems to recognize methylated nucleosomes at lysine 36 of histone H3 in lane 1, 2 & 3 better than unmethylated nucleosomes in lane 4 &5

D. The histone deacetylase seems to recognize methylated nucleosomes at lysine 36 of histone H3 in lane 1 & 2 better than unmethylated nucleosomes in lane 3 &4
