The larger the surface area of the mitochondrial chloroplast would allow more energy to be received from the sun, which would later affect the energy output by increasing the amount of energy released.

In the mitochondrion, there are inner foldings called Mitochondrial cristae which help to greatly increase the surface area and lead to a faster production of ATP because there are more places to perform the processes and produce more ATP. Thus more energy will be released.

Can someone explain the process of RNA editing?

Talja [164]

The process of RNA editing is the alteration of the sequence of nucleotides in the RNA after it has been transcribed from DNA, but before it is translated into a protein. RNA editing occurs by two distinct mechanisms:Substitution editing and Insertion/deletion editing.

Substitution editing is the chemical alteration of individual nucleotides. These alterations are catalyzed by enzymes that recognize a specific target sequence of nucleotides:

*Cytidine Deaminases that convert a C in the RNA to uracil.

*adenosine deaminases that convert an A to inosine,which the ribosome translates as a G.Thus a CAG codon (for Gln) can be converted to a CGG codon (for Arg).

*Insertion/deletion editing is the insertion or deletion of nucleotides in an RNA.

These alterations are mediated by guide RNA molecules that base-pair as best they can with the RNA to be edited and serve as a template for the addition( or removal) in the target.

A species of rabbit is preyed upon by foxes, which are preyed upon by wolves. Humans decide to open a hunting season on the wolf

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The rabbit population will decrease, due to the increased fox population.

Explanation:

Predator-Prey system usually experience changes that are cyclic. This occurs because the availability of the foods influences the population size. So, if there is not enough food for the predator (prey), their population will decrease in size. On the other hand, population of predator also has influence on the pray: population of prey will grow if there is decrease in population of predators.
