Suppose a geneticist mutates the gene for the poly(A) tail-binding protein (PABP) in an eukaryotic cell line. The resulting muta

nt protein cannot bind to poly(A) tails. What is the effect of the PABP mutation in the cultured cells?A-Transcription will not occur in the cultured cells, because PABP is an essential transcription factor.B-Translation will not occur in the cultured cells, because mRNAs will be degraded at a greater rate than normal.C-Transcription will occur in the cultured cells, but the resulting transcript will be longer than normal.D-Translation will occur in the cultured cells, but the resulting polypeptide will be longer than normal.E-Replication will not occur in the cultured cells, because PABP determines the location of the origin of replication.

Answer:

The answer is: B-Translation will not occur in the cultured cells, because mRNAs will be degraded at a greater rate than normal

Explanation:

The translation process will not happen in cells that are altered, because messenger RNA (mRNA) breaks down at a much higher rate than normal. In such a way that the PABP protein would bind to the poly A tail of the messenger RNA and this is essential in the stability of the messenger RNA.

Answer:

(B)

Explanation:

Translation will not occur in the cultured cells, because mRNA will be degraded at a greater rate than normal.

The reason of degradation is that scientist mutated the gene in eukaryotic cell which means translation will only occur in eukaryotic cell not in cultured cell.

Which property of water allows some lightweight insects to walk on top of a pond and not fall in
sergejj [24]

Surface tension is the property of water which allows for some lightweight insects to walk on top of a pond and not fall in. The molecules of water are held together by cohesive forces. The molecules of water present below the surface experience this cohesive force from all the directions, whereas the water molecules present on the surface experience a downward pull, as the force is not balanced. This leads to the concaving of the water surface inside a small tube.

When an automatic battery is fully charged the sulfuric acid and water mixture will have a specific gravity of about
Archy [21]

the specific gravity of pure sulfuric acid is---------> approximately 1.835 g / cm3

the specific gravity of water is -------------------- >1.000 g / cm3.

 The electrolyte, that is, the dissolution of sulfuric acid in water, is usually at a rate of 36% acid, so that, in a fully charged element, we can deduce the electrolyte density, is 1.295 g / cm3. (see attached table)

The specific gravity is actually the difference in the weight of water compared to a specific fluid. It is measured with a hydrometer
