What is the role of RNA

Biology
2 answers:
DENIUS [597]3 years ago
4 0
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>

Which statement about the starch debranching enzyme is correct?
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

B) If two non functional copies are inherited, the pea will be wrinkeld.

Explanation:

The gene for starch debranching is one of the genes that regulate more than one genetic trait. The starch debranching gene also regulates the seed shape in peas. The gene has two alleles. The allele B is completely dominant over allele "b" with respect to seed shape. Both homozygous and heterozygous dominant genotypes (BB and Bb) produce smooth seeds while homozygous recessive genotype (bb) imparts wrinkled shape to the seeds.

Under a microscope, gram-positive bacteria (when dyed with the gram stain) appear _____.
DedPeter [7]

Under a microscope, gram-positive bacteria (when dyed with the gram stain) appear in purple-colored structures due to the peptidoglycan cell wall.

<h3>What are gram-positive bacteria?</h3>

Gram-positive bacteria are microorganisms (bacteria) that may be colored with crystal violet stain due to the presence of a peptidoglycan-based cell wall.

In conclusion, under a microscope, gram-positive bacteria (when dyed with the gram stain) appear purple-colored structures due to the peptidoglycan cell wall.

4.   Which aquatic ecosystem typically forms along coastlines where fresh water and salt water meet, leading to varying degrees
lyudmila [28]
I would say estuary, because that's where a fresh water river and an ocean meet, and that leads to a transition between salt to fresh water.
