26. The two main mechanisms of epigenetic aging are:
A. Telomere shortening and DNA methylation
B. DNA methylation and tau hyperphosphorylation
C. DNA methylation and histone modification
I believe the correct answer to be:
Option C) DNA methylation and histone modification.
Collectively, epigenetic mechanisms determine chromatin architecture, accessibility of genetic loci to transcriptional machinery, and gene expression levels.
feel free to leave a comment down below for any further query. good rating would be appreciated if you find my answer helpful. thank you.

Part 1. Eukaryotes use at least two distinct mechanisms to control gene expression by altering the structure of chromatin around a particular gene. One of these mechanisms is the covalent modification of histones to switch DNA between an open and closed confirmation. A second mechanism is the covalent modification of DNA (typically on cytosines) by methylation. A. Describe a type of histone modification and explain what effect is has on chromatin, and how that effect is achieved. a. One type...
What does the phrase "epigenetic transgenerational inheritance of disease susceptibility" mean? Question options: a) changes to factors that affect gene expression, that are passed down to offspring, and affect whether or not offspring will get a particular disease b) changes to DNA sequences, that are passed down to offspring, and affect whether offspring will get a particular disease c) changes to factors that affect gene expression, that can be passed on from offspring to parents, and affect whether or notparents...
Two identical twins who showed very similar methylation patterns when they were 4 years old show very divergent patterns at age 40. This divergence is most likely due to a different alternative splicing in the two individuals Ob different levels of histone acetyltransferase in the two individuals. Oc environmental differences that they experienced as adults. O d. different genomic imprinting in the two individuals. O e differences in their experiences in utero Suppose that a certain enzyme is synthesized whenever...

Need help with these two genetics/biology questions! We have a molecule of DNA, which we will call our parental DNA molecule. This molecule of DNA is replicated, resulting in two new DNA molecules. Each of these two new DNA molecules then undergoes replication, so now there are four total DNA molecules. How many of these 4 DNA molecules contain a nucleotide chain from the original parental DNA molecule? * DNA, which we will c QUESTION 9 Diploid organisms have double...

Telomere Length Estimation Objective To estimate the length of telomeres on your extracted gDNA. Background Telomeres are repetitive nucleotide elements at the ends of chromosomes that protect chromosomes from degradation and genetic information loss. Normal diploid cells lose telomeres with each cell cycle. Telomere length, therefore, decreases over time and may predict lifespan. Telomere shortening has negative effects on health conditions and has been linked to many health issues including aging and cancer. Accurate and consistent quantification of telomere length...
