Answer:
A galaxy is a collection of millions of stars, while a solar system is a star and the planets around it.
Explanation:
You live in a solar system, we revolve around our sun and so do the other planets making up a solar system
Answer:
can ,synthesize specific proteins
Explanation:
Hormones are chemical signals secreted by animals and plant that are capable of regulating body activities and maintain homeostasis.
They are transported in the circulatory system of the body
The action of hormones can be seen after the hormone has bound to its specific receptor found inside the cell.
For instance, steroid hormone and the thyroid hormones can pass through the plasma membrane to their receptors inside the cells.
When they bind with their receptors, the target cells will synthesize specific proteins that produce the characteristic effect of the hormone.
Answer:
Essential amino acids cannot be made by the body. As a result, they must come from food. The 9 essential amino acids are: histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, and valine.
Explanation:
Answer:
E. Each codon represents a different amino acid.
Explanation:
The genetic code refers to the set of rules guiding the translation of nucleotide bases in DNA or RNA into an amino acid sequence (proteins). The genetic code contains all the codons in the genome, which is a group of three nucleotide base (triplet-based). Each codon species a particular amino acid, however, more than one codon can code for a particular amino acid. This characteristics of the genetic code is called DEGENERACY.
The genetic code is said to be nearly universal because the same codon encodes the same amino acid in almost all living organisms with only few exceptions. The nonoverlapping nature of the genetic code refers to the fact the three bases of a codon are read independently from the bases of another codon i.e. codons do not overlap.
A codon represents one amino acid but more than one codon can represent the same amino acid. Hence, option E is untrue
Answer:
periosteum ----> dense irregular connective tissue
Explanation:
- The periosteum is a dense fibrous membrane that covers the surfaces of bones.
The periosteum consists of two layers-
1. Outer fibrous layer
2. Inner cellular layer
- It is mainly composed of dense irregular connective tissue along with a layer of simple squamous epithelium.
- The function of periosteum is to cover the surface of all the bones except those surfaces that are covered with cartilage such as joints and tendons and ligaments.
