Answer: The correct answer is rRNA and protein.

Explanation:

Ribosome is a cell organelle present in the cytoplasm of all living cells. It is a site of protein synthesis in all type of cells. It is made up of two sub-units namely, small sub-unit and large sub-unit.

Both the sub-units are formed by rRNA (ribosomal RNA) and associated proteins. rRNA is ribozyme, that is, it is a ribonucleic acid with catalytic ability. The protein component helps in providing the structure to the ribosome.

Answer:

RNA and proteins.

Explanation:

Ribosomes are membrane-free granules made up of protein-associated RNA molecules, present in all cell types and visible only through the electron microscope. They are formed by two subunits of different sizes and densities, being called major and minor.

Ribosomes are responsible for the synthesis of proteins by joining their amino acids. This synthesis is controlled by mRNA (messenger RNA) formed in gene transcription under DNA command. MRNA, associated with a group of ribosomes called polyribosomes, guides the sequence of amino acids that will form proteins. These amino acids are brought by the tRNA (carrier RNA) and are nested according to the sequence determined by the mRNA. As polyribosomes traverse the mRNA strand, proteins are synthesized.

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Eukaryotic microbes and prokaryotic microbes

Explanation:

Some microbes such as bacteria do not have a membrane-bound nucleus. So, their genetic material lies in the cytoplasm itself. These microbes are called prokaryotic microbes. All the bacterial species are prokaryotes. Example: <em>E. coli. </em>

On the other hand, some microbes have a well define nucleus to house their genetic material. These microbes are called eukaryotic microbes. Fungi and protists are the eukaryotic microbes. Example: plasmodium and slime mold.

What is the relationship between proto-oncogenes and oncogenes?
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

Oncogenes result from a mutation in  proto-oncogenes.

Explanation:

  • Protooncogenes control the growth and division of cells.
  • The proteins encoded by proto-oncogenes include growth factors, growth factor receptors, transcription factors and signal transducers.
  • They contribute to the transformation process by driving cell proliferation or reducing sensitivity to cell death.
  • Several types of genetic and epigenetic changes convert these proto-oncogenes to oncogenes.
  • Oncogenes arise due to the changes that increases the expression of proto-oncogenes .
  • Oncogenes are one of the causes of cancers.

A proto-oncogenes can turn into oncogene by following ways:

  • A point mutation  such as deletion, insertion and substitution  in the proto-oncogene can lead to formation of oncogenes.
  • Chromosomal translocation may result in activation of proto-oncogene as seen in Burkitt's lymphoma.
  • Insertion of a mobile genetic material such as retrovirus changes the gene expression, but leaves their coding sequence intact.
  • Activation of proto-oncogene can also occur from reduplication and amplification of DNA sequence.
