A part of an mRNA molecule with the following sequence is being read by a ribosome: 5'-UGC-GCA-3' (mRNA). The charged transfer R

NA molecules shown in the figure below (with their anticodons shown in the 3' to 5' direction) are available. Two of them can correctly match the mRNA so that a dipeptide can form:

mRNA codons determine which amino acid will be added to the growing polypeptidic chain. tRNA anticodons pair these codons and add the correct amino acid. <em>The </em><em>dipeptide</em><em> formed will be </em><em>Cysteine-Alanine</em><em>.</em>

------------------------------------------

Let us review a few points,

  • In protein synthesis, the ribosome reads mRNA in the 5´ to 3´ direction.

  • According to the codons being readen, tRNA transfers the correct amino acids to build the polypeptide chain.

  • A codon is a short sequence of three nucleotides that store the genetic information for the aminoacids´ assembly.

  • Each codon represents one amino acid used to build the protein.

  • Each tRNA has two important sites. One of them that couples with the codon of the mRNA molecule, named anticodon. The other site couples with an amino acid.

  • The anticodon is a short sequence of bases that pairs with mRNA codons.

  • tRNA adds amino acids following the codons sequence in the mRNA molecule.

  • The protein grows from the amino terminus to the carboxy terminus.

  • Adenine forms pairs with Uracyl ⇒ A↔U
  • Guanine pairs with Cytosine ⇒ C↔G

In the exposed example,

→ mRNA     ⇒  codons   ⇒ 5'-UGC - GCA-3'

→ tRNA       ⇒ anticodons ⇒  ACG  CGU

→ proteins  ⇒ amino acids ⇒  Cys     Ala ⇒ Codon UGC codes for Cysteine

                                                                     ⇒Codon GCA codes for Alanine

So, for the given sequence of mRNA, tRNA anticodons are ACG and CGU. And the added amino acids are <em>Cysteine and Alanine</em>.

How is genetic engineering different from natural reproduction?
kolezko [41]

Answer:

Genetic Engineering is on purpose.

Explanation:

Genetic engineering could range from selective breeding to adding/removing DNA and RNA. Natural reproduction occurs with the sole purpose of creating successful offspring. The offspring could he tainted if the male and female are related leaving it to not have the DNA or RNA necessary to lessen the likelihood of dysfunctional genetics.

ANEK [815]
<span>Ian Waterman was able to sense pain and temperature because his spinothalamic pathway was intact, but could not feel touch and limb position because of damage to his lemniscus pathway. </span>

The lateral spinothalamic tract is a sensory pathway which carries sensory information like pain and temperature to the brain, across the thalamus. Free nerve endings which are located in the peripheral tissues are sensitive to cell damage. Those are primary neurons and they pass the sensory signal. Primary neurons synapse with secondary which are located in the spinal cord (white matter). These secondary neurons will ascend through the brainstem, medulla oblongata, pons and midbrain, until synapsing in the ventroposteriorlateral (VPL) nucleus of the thalamus. From the thalamus, the information is sent to cortex (somatosensory cortex).

Posterior column-medial lemniscus pathway is ascending spinal tract, carrying sensory information to the brain (sensory pathway). It conducts localized sensations of fine touch, vibration and proprioception (position sense) from the skin and extremities (muscles) to the central nervous system (cerebral cortex).

How is respiration regulated ?​
Allisa [31]

\huge\mathbb\colorbox{black}{\color{yellow}{AnSwEr}}

In humans, the medulla region of the brain is mainly responsible for the regulation process of respiration. It is also called the respiratory rhythm centre. The chemosensitive area located near the respiratory centre sends signals across nerve impulses to alter the rate of expiration to eliminate compounds.
