Larger cells have slower diffusion rates.

This is because the ratio of;
 
surface area of a cell : volume of a cell

Decreases with size, as volume increases exponentially with respect to surface area.

We might consider that;

Surface area = X²,
<em>Volume        = X</em>³

As X increases, X² : X³ decreases.

So large cells have more trouble with diffusion.

Arada [10]

Answer:

recombinant DNA

Explanation:

In molecular biology, recombinant DNA molecules are genetic sequences formed by combining DNA material from different sources (i.e., organisms, populations, species, etc). Proteins produced from DNA recombinant molecules are known as recombinant proteins. Molecular cloning is the most widely used technique in molecular biology in order to produce recombinant DNA molecules. In this technique, a cloning vector such as, for example, a plasmid of a bacterium, is used to insert a foreign DNA fragment into another cell which is then expressed in the host cell.

What describes the relationship between transcription and translation

Answer:

Translation is the process of translating the sequence of a messenger RNA molecule to a sequence of amino acids during protein synthesis. So, the relationship between the two processes is that they are both involved in protein synthesis and that transcription is first, then translation is second.
