<u>Answer</u>:

1. Gene expression may be controlled by epigenetic mechanisms.

The base pair sequence of a gene is not solely responsible for the sequence of amino acids. A gene may have several allele/variants whose expression is controlled by multiple factors. Epigenetic processes such as DNA methylation, do not involve changes in the DNA sequence. Instead they influence the protein amino acid sequence by changes in the process of transcription or even translation.

2. The mutation introduced a stop codon into the middle of the mRNA molecule.

The protein will be shorter if the point mutation causes the creation of a stop codon in the interior of the mRNA strand. Thus, the remaining sequence after the mutation will no longer be used to create the rest of the protein.

3. Pre-mRNA is not edited, and is used as mRNA.

Because no introns and exons are included in the model, the pre-mRNA is not edited. During this step, the introns are removed from the DNA strand. However, due to the fact that the model does not define them and thus differentiate between them and the exons, the pre-mRNA will be used as mRNA.

4. The process of translation in the beetle is similar to other organisms, but involves a unique genetic code.

The processes of translation and transcription are identical in all organisms. The only difference is the DNA sequence itself, which is species or organism specific. Thus, as it is a new beetle species, its genetic code will be unique. However, it will be translated and transcripted in the same manner as that in all other species.Their mRNA will also have and use the same nucleic acids.

5. The removes introns from pre-mRNA.

The pre-mRNA includes both introns and exons. However, only exons are used in the protein synthesis, whereas the introns are removed during the pre-mRNA stage.

6. Each of many tRNA molecules contains an anticodon, and it binds to a specific amino acid.

The anticodon of a tRNA molecule is amino acid specific. Thus, it can bind to one or a few specific mRNA codons.

7. RNA contains uracil (U) instead of thymine (T).

Both DNA and RNA have phosphate groups bound to a nitrogenous base. However, the single stranded RNA has uracil instead of the thymine found in the double stranded DNA. Also, both RNA and DNA have cytosine and guanine.

The tertiary structure of a polypeptide is the Select one:_________
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. The tertiary structure of a polypeptide is the overall three-dimensional shape of a fully folded polypeptide.

Explanation:

A polypeptide is a molecular chain composed of at least 10 amino acids (which are the molecules that make up proteins). When we talk about its tertiary structure, it refers to the complete overall three-dimensional structure of the polypeptide units of a given protein, where the polypeptide chain is fully folded and compacted. This folding is facilitated by unions called disulfide bonds, which are created from the cysteine residues, these bonds (called disulfide bridges as well) help to  stabilize many polypeptides.

Why are archaea in a different domain from bacteria apex?
mariarad [96]
The archaea are in a different domain from bacteria due to certain differences in their morphology and habitats, the Archaea are the separate domain of life in prokaryotes. For example; unlike bacteria, archaea cell walls do not contain peptidoglycan, they have different membrane lipid bonding from bacteria and eukarya.
Archaea is  considered as the different domain of life in prokaryotes, as they are the most primitive type and known as the ancient microbes found in extreme niches such as hydrothermal vents, higher salt concentration, high temperature, and pressure etc

What statement accurately compares sexual and asexual reproduction?
Advocard [28]

Answer:

Sexual reproduction results in genetic variation and asexual reproduction does not.

Explanation:

The key difference between sexual and asexual reproduction is that sexual reproduction occurs between two parents while asexual reproduction occurs via a single parent. Asexual reproduction requires only a single divisible cell to produce a new organism, whereas sexual reproduction requires two gametes, their formation and fusion.
