How will blocking histone deacetylases affect gene expression in the cell?

A. Chromatin will become more tightly compact, and gene expression will be reduced. B. Chromatin will become more tightly compact, and gene expression will be increased. C. Chromatin will become more open, and gene expression will be reduced. D. Chromatin will become more open, and gene expression will be increased. E.
