A certain bacterial mRNA is known to represent only one gene and to contain about 800 nucleotides. If you assume that the average amino acid residue contributes 110 to the peptide molecular weight, the largest polypeptide that this mRNA could code for would have a molecular weight of about _______.
A) 800.
B) 5,000.
C) 30,000.
D) 80,000.
E) An upper limit cannot be determined from the data given
Answer:
c. 30,000
Explanation:
The gene has a total of 800 nucleotides and would be transcribed into an mRNA having about 800 nucleotides. The nucleotides of mRNA are read in the form of genetic triplets. This means that the mRNA with 800 nucleotides would have about 800/3= 266.66 or 266 genetic codes. This mRNA would be translated into a polypeptide chain having around 266 amino acids.
One amino acid contributes 110 to the molecular weight. The total molecular weight of the largest possible polypeptide that can be encoded by the said gene would b 266 x 110= 29260 (around 30,000).
Answer:
For the first question, choose the option in which the practice would help in the preservation of nature, for example, by reducing pollution and waste, as well as protecting areas of wildlife from getting eradicated. For example, recycling would be a sustainable practice, in which you reuse hard-to-dispose man-made-materials.
For the second question, invasive species are dangerous to an environment, for they destroy the fragile original ecosystem. They generally would destroy one or more levels of the ecosystem, resulting in a total-reduction of the populations in each language, or else an imploding boom of a certain population that would soon strangle itself out from lack of resources.
