A certain bacterial mRNA is known to represent only one gene and to contain about

Biology
1 answer:
Brut [27]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

C) 30,000

Explanation:

According to the given information, the bacterial mRNA consists of about 800 nucleotides. Three consecutive nucleotides together make one genetic codon which in turn codes for one specific amino acid in the protein encoded by this mRNA.  

So, an mRNA with 800 nucleotides will have total 800/3 = 266.67 or 266 genetic codes. The protein encoded by this mRNA would have a total of 266 amino acids.  

Given that one amino acid imparts 110 units to the molecular weight of the protein, the protein with 266 amino acids have the molecular weight= 266 x 110 = 29260, that is about 30,000.

OLga [1]

People who have leukemia, a cancer that affects white blood cells, are often given Cytrabine. This drug inhibits the synthesis of DNA.

S-phase of cell cycle is most affected by Cytrabine because cytrabine interfers with synthesis of DNA and we know that in S-phase of cell cycle synthesis of DNA takes place.

100 POINTS!!! ANSWER ASAP [5 SENTENCE ANSWER] Explain the relationship among distance, mass and gravitational force between any
Karolina [17]
Since the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of both interacting objects, more massive objects will attract each other with a greater gravitational force. So as the mass of either object increases, the force of gravitational attraction between them also increases. If the mass of one of the objects is doubled, then the force of gravity between them is doubled. If the mass of one of the objects is tripled, then the force of gravity between them is tripled. If the mass of both of the objects is doubled, then the force of gravity between them is quadrupled; and so on.

Hope this helps.
