The correct Answer is:
To analyze the statements provided in the question, we will break down each statement step by step. ### Step 1: Understand the First Statement The first statement is "Nucleosome is present on the chromosomes." - **Explanation**: A nucleosome is a structural unit of a chromosome. It consists of a segment of DNA wrapped around a core of histone proteins. This structure helps in the compaction of DNA, allowing it to fit within the cell nucleus. Therefore, nucleosomes are indeed present on chromosomes. ### Step 2: Evaluate the First Statement - **Conclusion**: The first statement is **true** because nucleosomes are fundamental components of chromatin, which makes up chromosomes. ### Step 3: Understand the Second Statement The second statement is "A true nucleus is called Eukaryon." - **Explanation**: A true nucleus is defined as a membrane-bound nucleus that contains the genetic material of an organism. Eukaryon refers specifically to cells that have a true nucleus, distinguishing them from prokaryotic cells, which do not have a membrane-bound nucleus. ### Step 4: Evaluate the Second Statement - **Conclusion**: The second statement is also **true** because the term "eukaryon" is indeed used to describe cells with a true, membrane-bound nucleus. ### Step 5: Determine the Correctness of the Explanation The question asks if both statements are correct and if they provide correct explanations for each other. - While both statements are true, the first statement does not provide a correct explanation for the second statement. The presence of nucleosomes does not explain what a eukaryon is. ### Final Conclusion - **Answer**: Both statements are true, but the first statement does not correctly explain the second statement. ---
