We would expect that a 15-nucleotide sequence that includes a stop codon at the end (as part of the 15-nucleotide sequence) will
slega [8]

Answer: Four amino acids.

Explanation:

RNA (ribonucleic acid) and DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) are polymers made up of long chains of nucleotides. Thus, a nucleotide is the basic building block of nucleic acids and consists of a sugar molecule (ribose in RNA or deoxyribose in DNA) linked to a phosphate group and a nitrogenous base. <u>The nitrogenous bases can be Adenine (A), Thymine (T), Cytosine (C), Guanine (G) or Uracil (U) replacing T in RNA</u>. DNA is the molecule that stores the genetic information to synthesize polypeptides or proteins (set of amino acids). When proteins need to be created, DNA is transcribed into RNA and this RNA is translated in ribosomes to create polypeptides.

Complementarity is the ability to combine with their complement. A and T (or U) are complementary, while C and G are complementary to each other. Complementarity is the principle of replication and transcription, because it is a propery of both DNA and RNA sequences. Their the nucleotide bases at each position of the sequences are complementary, allowing cells to copy information.

Nucleotides in RNA are grouped into codons, which consist of groups of 3 nucleotides where each codon codes for an amino acid. Therefore, <u>the sequence of bases in nucleic acids determines which protein will be synthesized</u>. Protein synthesis begins with a start codon (AUG, which codes for the amino acid methionine) and ends with a stop codon (UGA, UAG and UAA). So, if there are 15 nucleotides, there are 15 bases. Since they are grouped in groups of 3, we will have a polypeptide of 4 amino acids.

<u>3 nucleotides form a codon, so 12 nucleotides form 4 codons giving 4 amino acids. The last codon, is formed by the last 3 nucleotides and form the stop codon that stop protein synthesis</u>.

Describe how the process of photosynthesis led to an increase in cellular respiration and more complex cells
koban [17]

Answer:

<u><em>BRIEF EXPLANATION</em></u>

Photosynthesis is the anabolic process of building up glucose and making O2 from CO2 and water while cellular respiration is the opposite catabolic process of breaking down glucose by oxidizing it with O2 to get CO2 and water.

Explanation:

<em><u>MAIN ANSWER TO THE QUESTION.</u></em>

Photosynthesis is like when you’re trying to gain muscle and you eat tuna and eggs to turn it into muscle tissue. This takes energy in the form of food just like how photosynthesis requires sunlight for energy.

Cellular respiration is like when impoverished people starve for a week because they don’t have sufficient food to eat for nutrients. They have to get them from somewhere else. So the body breaks down glycogen, body fat and muscle tissue to provide the energy.
