    Observe the diagram given below of a nucleosome model and answer the following questions.
    (i) The number of nucleosomes present in human cell is
     

    A) \[3.3\times {{10}^{7}}\] nucleosome

    B) \[1.1\times {{10}^{7}}\] nucleosome

    C) \[6.6\times {{10}^{7}}\] nucleosome

    D) Indefinite

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] Approximately 200 bp are present per nucleosome. Total number of base pairs in human's genetic material is \[=6.6\times {{10}^{9}}\]. Number of nucleosomes \[\frac{6.6\times {{10}^{9}}}{200}=3.3\times {{10}^{7}}\]
