Biology

Ratling [72]2 years ago

The P wave of the electrocardiogram is considered as a signal from the DEPOLARIZATION of the atria in the heart. This depolarization drives the contraction of the atrial musculature.

An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a device that records the electrical activity of the heart. This record can then be used to diagnose different heart conditions.

The P waves occur when the sinoatrial node generates an action potential which is capable of depolarizing the atria.

This depolarization is then followed by atrial contraction and an increase of the pressure in the atria.

When two genes from two different people are sequenced and aligned, it is discovered that there are multiple sequence difference
REY [17]

Answer:

The best answer to the question: What is the most likely explanation for this observation, would be, B: RNA processing removes the different segments from the mRNA molecules of each person prior to translation.

Explanation:

In order for cells to work, they depend on one of the four major macromolecules; proteins. These proteins are the messengers that carry out genetic commands from the DNA and they will ensure that all processes, including transcription and translation of new proteins, are carried out correctly. In order to produce proteins, the first step is for the DNA to be transcribed into mRNA, a nucleic acid that carries out the information on the DNA for protein generation. Once transcription stops, mRNA undergoes a series of clipping and reorganizing steps that will ensure that when it is decoded for protein formation, the process will be successful. These control steps are all part of the RNA processing mechanism that enures mRNA will successfully be translated into working proteins.

The reason why from genes of different people, a very similiar protein chain may result, is also explained from the fact that codons (a grouping of three nucleotides present in mRNA), when read by ribosomes, and coupled by tRNA, can pair these codons with similar amino acids. Thus, one codon, or similar codons, may code for a singular amino acid. However, mechanisms in the cells prevent these kinds of anomalies, by repairing the mRNA sequence before it is translated into protein.

Answer: Dolphins

Explanation:

Dolphins are well-documented as intelligent animals. They can recognize themselves in a mirror and communicate with each other. Their large brain is structured for awareness and emotion, and dolphin brains are even more structurally complex than those of humans.

If, by examining your family history and DNA, you could tell how long you would naturally live and which, if any, genetic condit
aev [14]
Well my family has a genetic condition but i wouldnt want to know about my chances of catching it. I would rather remain blind to how long and enjoy how long my life lasts. I wouldnt want to know because then I would feel like I have a time limit. By not knowing I can enjoy every breath i take. Also by not knowing I wont have to worry my kids about me. Like last time I had a cold they called a doctor and scheduled an appointment just for a few sneezes and coughs. Also if I told my kids then they would feel like they have a time limit on their lives to. I am just going to live my life to the best. Plus if anything does happen to me I am only like two minutes away from a hospital.
