Answer: Nucleotide; Adenine
Explanation: RNA Nucleotide contains bases of Thymine, Cytosine, Guanine and Uracil. The Uracil base in RNA, substitute the base Thymine in the DNA base and bonds with Adenine like as seen in DNA base pairing.
Thus, during DNA duplication, the thymine at the top of the template strand of DNA is replaced with Uracil and binds with Adenine.
Answer:toxic
Explanation:
A ureotelic organism excretes excess nitrogen as urea. Urea is less toxic and needs less water in comparison to Ammonia. Ureotelic organisms include cartilaginous fish, few bony fishes, adult amphibians and mammals including humans. The uricotelic organism excretes uric acid or its salts
Answer:
The effect of amanitin on the maximum elongation rate for the wild-type and modified RNA polymerases is that it binds to the RNA polymerases, and reduces the process of translocation which is essential for RNA synthesis that is required for RNA polymerases elongation.
Explanation:
Amanitin is a peptide that is cyclic in nature. It is repelled by water thereby making it an hydrophobic peptide.
Amanitin is a toxic peptide that is found in Amanita ( a type of mushroom).
Alpha Amanitin in particular is the one that affects the elongation rate of RNA Polymerases in the body.
When Alpha Amanitin gets into the body system, it travels straight to the liver and due to its very strong affinity for RNA polymerases, it immediately attaches itself to them.
After the attachment, Alpha Amanitin, is disturbs the bridge helix found in RNA polymerase, preventing the hindering and slowing down the proces of translocation from happening.
Once translocation is hindered, RNA is no longer synthesized. Hence, the elongation of RNA polymerases is hindered and this results in severe illness in the body such as liver failure, cytolysis of the liver
Although there is no attachment, the best answer would be option B.
DNA replication occurs in opposite directions along a strand of DNA.
The leading strand is replicated continuously in the 5' to 3' direction towards the replication fork.
The lagging strand is replicated discontinuously in the 5' to 3' with segments of DNA known as Okazaki fragments.
