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

Biology

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.

Lichens are among the slowest-growing organisms, but their tolerance of environmental extremes enables them to colonize habitats
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

The correct option is B.

Explanation:

Lichens  is regarded as a mutual relationship between a mycobiont and photobiont, the relationship is targeted at enhancing their survival in extreme environments. The mycobiont is a fungal while the photobiont is usually a green alga or a mycobacterium. Each of the organism has their specific tasks; the mycobiont provides suitable habitat for the photobiont while the photobiont provide energy for the whole system.

Kipish [7]

A codon is a tree letter nucleotide sequence in the mRNA. The tRNA anticodon attached to the corresponding amino acid recognizes the mRNA codon. A single amino acid can have more than one codon. 

The serine codon can be one of the following:
