Answer:
When a nerve impulse reaches the end of an axon, the axon releases chemicals called neurotransmitters. Neurotransmitters travel across the synapse between the axon and the dendrite of the next neuron.
Explanation:
The binding allows the nerve impulse to travel through the receiving neuron.
The correct answer is: A. A change in a cell's genetic material.
Mutations occur in DNA as a result of mistakes during the DNA replication (when repair mechanisms don’t fix it) or as the result of environmental factors (e.g. UV light). Mutations can have positive impact, by increasing the genetic variation or can have negative effect, causing the diseases or cancer.
Answer:
transcription of mRNA from DNA
small ribosomal subunit binds to mRNA
initiation complex formed with addition of large ribosomal subunit
translocation
codon recognition (non-initiating site)
peptide bond formation
ribosome reads a stop codon
polypeptide chain is released from the P site
ribosomal subunits dissociate
Explanation:
The above describes the process of translation in the ribosome. After transcription of DNA to mRNA, the mRNA is taken to the ribosome to undergo translation, here the mRNA binds to the small ribosomal subuits and to other initiation factors; binding at the mRNA binding site on the small ribosomal subunit then the Large ribosomal subunits joins in.
Translation begins (codon recognition; initiating site) at the initiation codon AUG on the mRNA with the tRNA bringing its amino acid (methionine in eukaryotes and formyl methionine in prokaryotes) forming complementary base pair between its anticodon and mRNA's AUG start codon. Then translocation occurs with the ribosome moving one codon over on the mRNA thus moving the start codon tRNA from the A site to the P site, then codon recognition occurs (non-initiating site again) which includes incoming tRNA with an anticodon that is complementary to the codon exposed in the A site binds to the mRNA.
Then peptide bond formation occurs between the amino acid carried by the tRNA in the p site and the A site. When the ribosome reads a stop codon, the process stops and the polypeptide chain produced is released and the ribosomal subunits dissociates.
Biology textbooks often state that 38 ATP molecules can be made per oxidized glucose molecule during cellular respiration (2 from glycolysis, 2 from the Krebs cycle, and about 34 from the electron transport system).
Explanation:
It should be noted that the vegetables at a buffet should be heated to a temperature of about 140°F or above. This is necessary in order to prevent the food from spoiling which is referred to as the temperature danger zone which is when the temperature is lesser and this can result into bacteria growing on the food.
