Answer:

Explanation:

Translation is the second process that the genetic material needs to undergo to be expressed. Basically, it is when the nucleotide sequence in mRNA is used to synthesize proteins. Translation occurs in the ribosome (cytoplasm) and it occurs with the aid of a special type of RNA molecule that helps matches an mRNA codon with the amino acid it encodes. This RNA is called transfer RNA (tRNA).

Translation begins when a tRNA attaches to mRNA in the P site of the ribosome, this attachment forms an initiation complex. The tRNA contains a set of three nucleotides called ANTICODON which is complementary to the mRNA codon. It uses this anticodon to read the mRNA codon in the Psite, and carries an amino acid that is specified by that codon it reads. When this is done, it exposes the mRNA codon on the other site of the ribosome (A site). Another tRNA then binds to this codon on the A-site. The tRNA carries the amino acid encoded by that codon.

The first tRNA then transfers its amino acid to the one on the newly arrived tRNA, this forms a peptide bond between the two amino acids. When this chemical bonding occurs, the ribosome shifts the tRNA carrying the growing polypeptide into its vacant site. This makes the codon on the site exposed again and the process repeats in that order till a stop CODON is encountered, signalling the release of the polypeptide (protein).

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

The phylogenetic graph uses several types of variables to be formed, while other models use only one type of variable.

Explanation:

To create a phylogenetic chart, matrices with data on the studied species are used. These data are composed of morphological, chemical and / or genetic information that allow a detailed investigation about the ancestry of each species, in addition to allowing the correct grouping based on this ancestry and evolution.

A phylogenetic graph is different from other molecular models due to the number of data considered by it, since other models, such as the molecular clock, for example, only consider genetic based information.

Which example shows an organism maintaining homeostasis?
Naddik [55]
The example that shows an organism maintaining homeostasis is b. a person sweating on a hot day. Homeostasis is an organism's ability to maintain a stable internal environment irrespective of the external environment. When a person's body overheats, the body releases water as perspiration or sweat to cool itself down. Another example is when a person gets cold, the hair on his arms and legs, stand up straight - to trap air circulating round his body, and heat it up.

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

a) The question "Do pumpkins grow bigger when fed milk?" it is already a hypothesis, which means that to apply the scientific method, we should establish an experiment, where we would select a squash squash, feed some with milk and some without milk and wait a certain period of time. After that time, we could move on to the stage of the scientific method called "evaluation of results" where we would evaluate the differences in development and size between the pumpkins that were fed with milk and those that were not. After that we would go to the phase called "conclusion" where based on the comparison of the results we would answer the hypothesis shown above.

b) A scientific question could be "Can bean seeds germinate in sterile soil?"

Explanation:

Scientific method is a set of steps that must be followed when someone wants to prove a hypothesis based on experimental and scientific data. These steps are: visualization of something questionable, formulation of the hypothesis about it, establishment of a scientific experiment to test the hypothesis, evaluation of the results of the experiment and conclusion.

A scientific question is every question that you can perform a scientific experiment to answer it. This scientific experiment is carried out with the steps of the scientific method.
