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:
Which of the following dipeptides will be formed?

Proline-Threonine
Glycine-Cysteine
Alanine-Alanine
Cysteine-Alanin

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>.

Worms move using an hydrostatic skeleton. How do worms move?
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. Worms move through changes in body structure caused by contraction of muscles compressing their watery fluid.

Explanation:

The hydroskeleton consists of a fluid-filled cavity, surrounded by muscles. The fluid pressure and the action of the muscles that border it, serve to change the body's shape and produce a movement such as digging or swimming. The successive contraction of various metamers, which are provided with bundles of circular and longitudinal muscle fibers, stretching and thickening parts of the body, allow it to move horizontally. Hydrostatic skeletons have a role in the locomotion of annelids, nematodes and other invertebrates. The hydroskeleton has similarities with the hydrostatic muscles.
