What is the role of RNA

Biology
2 answers:
DENIUS [597]3 years ago

There are 3 roles of RNA in protein synthesis
1) Messenger RNA or abbreviated as mRNA 
 - Carries genetic material copied from DNA in the form of series of 3 base coded "words"
- Each word represents an amino acid which will be  built into a protein later
2)Transfer RNA of tRNA
 - The key to deciphering the mRNA
 - The correct tRNA will adhere to the mRNA in a ribosome with an amino acid in tow which will connect to form a polypeptide chain.
3) Ribosomal RNA or rRNA
 -The rRNA kind of facilitates protein synthesis 
 - It is what forms the protein from a polypeptide chain.
 - Also joins the ribosome together ( Ribosomes are made of 2 subunits)
The process is kind of a visual process. For me, I had to kind see it to actually understand. It is a confusing process to understand from just words.

Crash Course Biology on Youtube should have an episode on Protein Synthesis or on RNA and the nucleic acids
There are also various animations online that show the process.

hope this helps

I honestly don't remember much about this and I'm sure someone else will answer more thoroughly for you but I believe it is the "<span>messenger". It carries instructions from DNA to conrol the synthesis of proteins</span>

Abnormally slow depolarization of the ventricles would most change the shape of the ________ in an ECG tracing. Group of answer
NeTakaya

Abnormally slow depolarization of the ventricles would most change the shape of the QRS complex in an ECG tracing.

  • The conduction system in the ventricles depolarizes, and this depolarization spreads along the walls of the ventricles to produce the QRS complex.
  • It represents electrical activity that occurs before the ventricles contract (ventricular systole). The QRS complex appears immediately after the onset of ventricular systole.
  • An aberrant depolarization of the ventricles results in the formation of an abnormal QRS complex.
  • The SA node, an ectopic pacemaker in the atria, AV junction, bundle branches, Purkinje network, or the ventricular myocardium are all possible pacemaker sites in these aberrant QRS complexes.
  • An aberrant QRS complex might have any shape, from normal to wide and odd to slurred and notched.

What do translation and transcription work together to do? Explain the role each plays in the process.
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

transcription is the synthesis of an mRNA molecule using a DNA molecule for a template. That mRNA molecule then goes on to complete translation in the ribosome. Translation is the process in which proteins are produced based on instructions carried by mRNA.
