Har Gobind Khorana and his colleagues performed numerous experiments translating synthetic mRNAs. In one experiment, an mRNA mol

ecule with a repeating UG dinucleotide sequence was assembled and translated.
Write the sequence of this mRNA. Select all that apply.

a) 3'-GUGUGUGUGUGUGUGU...-5'
b) 5'-GUGUGUGUGUGUGUGU...-3'
c) 3'-UGUGUGUGUGUGUGUG...-5'

Answer:

d) 5'-UGUGUGUGUGUGUGUG...-3'

Explanation:

A UG dinucleotide is when UG is repeated.

mRNAs are transcribed and translated as a 5' to 3' molecule. Therefore, the direction should be 5' - 3'.

For the mRNA to be in frame, it must start with UG. The only option that runs 5' - 3' and is in frame for a UG dinucleotide is d.

Why does an increased amount of biodiversity/complexity in an ecosystem allow it to respond better after a disturbance?
elena55 [62]

Answer:

Higher biodiversity seems to be associated with a better response to disturbance events

Explanation:

Biodiversity means 'the variety of life'. Disturbance processes modify the environment and also affect demographic processes such as growth, recruitment, survivorship, etc., thereby producing changes in biodiversity. In an ecosystem, biodiversity contributes to its sustainability. In this regard, it has been shown that disturbance events are less important in species-rich ecosystems such as tropical wet forests compared to less rich ones (such as dry forests). The communities with higher biodiversity levels are known to be more productive in terms of biomass, and thus they seem to be more stable (and successful) to disturbance events.

Which one of the following represents the correct order through which food passes in the alimentarycanal:
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

D) Mouth, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine.

Explanation:

Food is ingested in the mouth, passes through the pharynx that connects the mouth to the esophagus. It moves down the esophagus by parastalsis. It is further digested in the stomach, absorbed in the small intestine and indigestible material together with fibre is passed to the large intestine where its either digested by freindly bacteria or eliminated as waste by defecation.
