How does the cell use both dna and rna to direct protein synthesis

Answer:

DNA and RNA are nucleic acids found in the cells of living organisms. DNA is a two-stranded molecule consisting of a deoxyribose sugar, while RNA is a single-stranded molecule with ribose as its sugar component. There are three primary types of RNA: messenger RNA (mRNA), ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and transfer RNA (tRNA). Another kind of RNA is small nuclear RNA, or snRNA, which is involved in altering an RNA transcript.

Proteins are one of the vital biomolecules of life. These compounds perform a variety of essential processes to sustain an organism's survival, which include clotting of blood, transporting oxygen, contracting muscles and catalyzing chemical reactions. The building blocks of proteins are called amino acids.

The synthesis of proteins starts with transcribing the instructions in DNA into mRNA. The mRNA is then carried out of the cell's nucleus into the cytoplasm, specifically into structures called ribosomes. The ribosomes, which contain rRNA, are organelles where protein production occurs. The tRNA transports the amino acids to the ribosomes. The code sequence in mRNA is then translated, and specific proteins are synthesized by stringing amino acids together.

<span>In the presence of oxygen, one glucose molecule has the energy to make up to 38 ATP. The ATP production is determined by the following steps, (-2 ATP) glycolysis preparatory phase, (7-9 ATP) glycolysis pay-off phase, (5 ATP) oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate and (20 ATP) Krebs cycle. One glucose which has 38 ATP hence was the summation of all the process mentioned that took place.  All these process take place under the cellular function of cellular respiration.<span>

Examine the genotype for an individual who is AaBbCcDc. Predict the outcomes of meiosis and the potential gamete combinations th
Katarina [22]

Answer: 16 different gametes

  1. ABCD
  2. ABCd
  3. ABcD
  4. ABcd
  5. AbCD
  6. AbCd
  7. AbcD
  8. Abcd
  9. aBCD
  10. aBCd
  11. aBcD
  12. aBcd
  13. abCD
  14. abCd
  15. abcD
  16. abcd

Explanation:

Gamete formation involves the random and independent segregation of alleles. During anaphase 1 (meiosis), occurs the independent separation of homologous chromosomes that migrate to opposite poles of the cell. This separation generates different chromosomal combinations in the daughter cells. There are two alternatives per homologous pair.  

The number of gametes with different combinations is 2ⁿ, where  

n = number of homologous pairs.  

In the exposed example there are 4 pairs of chromosomes, so

the number of possible combinations of chromosomes = 2ⁿ = 2⁴ = 16

Individual: AaBbCcDdEe

You can make use of the fork line method to easily figure out the possible gametes.

A.......B.........C........D → ABCD

                     ........d → ABCd

          ...........c.........D → ABcD

                       ........d → ABcd

           b.........C........D → AbCD

                     ........d → AbCd

          ...........c.........D → AbcD

                       ........d → Abcd

a.......B.........C........D → aBCD

                     ........d → aBCd

          ...........c.........D → aBcD

                       ........d → aBcd

           b.........C........D → abCD

                     ........d → abCd

          ...........c.........D → abcD

                       ........d → abcd
