Question

eukaryotic chromosomes tend to be much larger than prokaryotic chromosomes. in order to package these large chromosomes into the nucleus, which family of proteins are used by the cell? (1 point)

○ histones

○ dna polymerases

○ rna polymerases

○ transcription factors

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Eukaryotic cells use histones to package large chromosomes into the nucleus. Histones associate with DNA to form nucleosomes, which are the basic units of chromatin structure, allowing for efficient packing. DNA polymerases are involved in DNA replication, RNA polymerases in transcription, and transcription factors regulate gene - expression, none of which are related to chromosome packaging into the nucleus.

Answer:

A. histones
