What is stack operation in 8085 microprocessor?

STACK operation in 8085 microprocessor.The stack is a reserved area of the memory in RAM where temporary information may be stored. An 8-bit stack pointer is used to hold the address of the most recent stack entry. This location which has the most recent entry is called as the top of the stack.When the information is written on the stack, the operation is called PUSH. When the information is read from the stack, the operation is called POP. The stack works on the principle of Last in First Out or Fist in Lat Out


Relationship between chromatin and DNA?

DNA is the genetic information in an individual it is coiled into small ball like structures called histones histones are coiled into small structures called nucleosomes the nucleosomes are then coiled into chromatin, which is our chromosomes

How are the nuclear envelope nucleolus and chromosomes related to one another briefly describe each of these structures.?

The nucleus consists of two membranes, one called the NUCLEAR ENVELOPE. The nuclear envelope surrounds the cell's genetic information. This genetic information is contained in structures called CHROMOSOMES. In addition to chromosomes, most nuclei contain a region called the NUCLEOLUS.
