Answer: b
Explanation: Association of DNA and histone is mediated by a large number of hydrogen bonds,
that is, ≈140 bonds. The majority forms between the protein and the oxygen of the phosphodiester
backbone near the minor grove. Only 7 hydrogen bonds are made between the protein side chains
and the bases in the minor groves of the DNA.
