<span>The answer is cysteine. This is a half essential proteinogenic amino acid with the formulation of HO₂CCHCH₂SH. It is prearranged by the codons UGU and UGC. The thiol side chain in cysteine frequently partakes in enzymatic responses, as a nucleophile.</span>

Answer:

Theoretically, it will result in the formation of cysteine or cys. However, in living cell or practically it may not result in formation of cysteine as translation always begins with the formation of methionine which is coded by AUG (start codon) on mRNA.

If DNA contains ACG as the first triplet, then it will be coded as UGC in the mRNA. UGC codes for cysteine which is a semi-essential amino acid.

On the other hand, if ACT is kept as the first triplet in a DNA sequence, then it will be coded as UGA which is one of the three stop codons (UAA, UGA, and UAG).

Using ideal ATP production numbers, how many ATPs would an individual generate if he or she consumed only pyruvate and carried o
IrinaK [193]

Answer: The ATP(Adenosine Triphosphate) that will be generated if one pyruvate molecule is carried through cellular respiration is 36.

Explanation: Pyruvate is formed through glycolysis cycle which breaks down glucose. The pyruvate is used in aerobic cellular respiration via the TCA cycle yielding 2 ATPs and the electron transport system yielding 34 ATPs. That makes it up to a total of 36 ATPs.

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

The Answer is c. Mitosis: Eukaryotic Cell Division and Cloning Specialist.

Explanation:

Mitosis means when a cell divides into two cells. As cells divide, the number of cells doubles. And each cell is an exact duplicate of the original cell, or a clone. Eukaryotic means that everything in the cell is enclosed in a membrane.

Hope this helps!! Have an Awesome day!!! :-)
