Question

The telomere of a chromosome is responsible for

Answer 1

A telomere is a region of repetitive nucleoide sequences at each end of a chromosome , which protects the end of the chromosome from deterioration or from fusion with neighboring chromosomes. . For vertibrates, the sequence of nucleotides in telomeres is TTAGGG with completely DNA stand being AATCCC, with a single-stranded TTAGGG overhang. This sequence of TTAGGG is repeated approximately 2,500 times in humans. In humans, average telomere length declines from about 11 kilobases at birth to less than 4 kilobases in old age,with the average rate of decline being greater in men than in women.

Answer 2

Answer:Telomeres are the caps at the end of each strand of DNA that protect our chromosomes. DNA is sticky , therefore they  prevent one chromosome from binding to another one.
