Yes, it can bind to an intracellular receptor.
Oxygen-16 atomic number is 8 so it has 8 protons. Its atomic weight is 16 so 16-8 = 8 neutrons.
Answer: What is the relationship between rock cycle and metamorphism?
When a rock is exposed to extreme heat and pressure within the Earth but does not melt, the rock becomes metamorphosed. Metamorphism may change the mineral composition and the texture of the rock.
Explanation:
Answer:
Plants must have evolved in a manner where they require less water and nutrients as these two were the only limiting factor and carbon dioxide was in abundance
Explanation:
Some 400,000 years ago, the concentration of CO2 was very high and was near to 1000 ppm. At this high concentration of CO2 the photosynthetic activity of plants becomes very high and thus since 400,000 years ago plants could have evolved in an uncontrolled manner but this does not happened. So the reason behind this is limitation in terms of soil and its constituent’s nutrients availability and also limited supply of water.
Therefore, if plants would have evolved themselves in a manner where they require less water and nutrients then they would have grown limitless.
DNA and RNA
Transcription. During the process of transcription, an enzyme called RNA polymerase binds to DNA at a gene's promoter, then begins unwinding the DNA and making a complementary strand of RNA from the exposed DNA template. Depending on the gene being transcribed, the result can be a molecule of mRNA (messenger RNA), tRNA (transfer RNA), or rRNA (ribosomal RNA). Each type of RNA performs a specific function later in translation.
rRNA
Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) along with ribosomal proteins make up ribosomes, the "workbenches" on which polypeptides (proteins) are synthesized. It turns out that it is actually rRNA, and not a protein, in the large subunit of the ribosome that performs the peptidyl transferase function of linking amino acids together via peptide bonds. In eukaryotes, the genes coding for rRNAs are located in the nucleolus of the nucleus. A ribosome has 3 binding sites: an A (aminoacyl) site, a P (peptidyl) site, and an E (exit) site.
mRNA
The message carrying the information needed to make a particular polypeptide exists in the mRNA molecule. It binds with a ribosome and the ribosome starts reading it one codon - 3 consecutive mRNA bases - at a time. Each of the possible 64 codons codes for a particular amino acid, or for a release factor (in which case it is a STOP codon). So the order of bases in the mRNA specifies the order in which amino acids are linked together to form a polypeptide.
tRNA
A tRNA molecule has 2 main sites. At one end it has an amino-acid attachment site and on the opposite end it has a 3-base anticodon. An enzyme (an aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase) recognizes the type of tRNA and attaches the appropriate amino acid to it, at which point the tRNA is said to be charged. Charged tRNA molecules "bump into" the empty ribosome A site, but only if there is a complementary match between the mRNA codon associated with that site and the anticodon on the tRNA does the charged tRNA dock.
Hopefully, that's enough...
