MAXImum [283]

question 8

DNA is copied into mRNA  during  the process of  <u>Transcription</u>

  • <u>  </u>Transcription  is the process by which  information  in the strand of DNA  is copied into   new  molecule  of  messenger  mRNA.
  • The mRNA   formed is a complimentary  to  DNA  strand   whereby replace   of  C with   G,  and  A  with U and T with  A.

 Question 9

Translation  occurs  in  the  ribosome ,  the  organelle  responsible  for  building  proteins.

  •    Ribosome   are responsible for protein synthesis.
  •  They receive  messenger RNA sent  from  the nucleus  and build protein.
  • translation    has  three  steps that is
  1.   initiation -  ribosome assemble  around the target  mRNA.
  2.  elongation- The tRNA transfer  amino acid  to  tRNA  corresponding to  the next codon.
  3. Three  phases of translation initiation  polymerase  bind  to DNA  strand  and move  along until the small ribosomal  subunit  binds to  DNA.

Write some differences between unisexual and bisexual organisms ​
Reika [66]

Answer:

Unisexual and bisexual organisms are differentiated based on the reproductive systems they posses. Unisexual organisms have separate sexes male or female. Male and female reproductive systems are present in different individuals hence unisexual organisms produce male or female gametes but never both. Bisexual organisms have both male and female reproductive systems within the same individual. Hence, they are capable of producing both types of gametes. Some flowers are unisexual, and they possess only pistils or stamens. Some flowers are bisexual, and they possess both stamens and pistils together. This is the difference between unisexual and bisexual organisms.

BARSIC [14]
In the question stated above, it is very likely that the patient is facing receptive or sensory issues. This is clear when he mistakes one stimulus for another. This might be because he sees one thing but can not distinguish it for another, or he's having problems differentiating one tactile stimulus for another. Either way, the system compromised is the patient's sensory system.
