Which of the following statements best describes the termination of transcription in prokaryotes?

Biology
1 answer:
harkovskaia [24]3 years ago

Answer:

B. RNA polymerase transcribes through the terminator sequence, causing the polymerase to fall off the DNA and release the transcript.

Explanation:

Termination of transcription in prokaryotes can be performed in two ways:

  • Rho dependent-Rho factor is a protein that has the ability to bind for RNA polymerase, and to separate it from the template DNA strand
  • Rho independent-there is a specific sequence in DNA  rich C and G nucleotides. As RNA polymerase gets to that region, it folds the DNA and creates the hairpin. The hairpin causes the polymerase to fall.

Gardeners understand that plants have specific pH requirements. Most plants thrive in soil with a pH that is slightly acidic, ne
nalin [4]
<span>In order to lower the PH to an appropriate level so that garden plants thrive,

the gardener should add a natural acid like pine needles or humus.


To add a base like calcium carbonate or limestone. Acids have a PH which is less than 7.

 If a base is added to an acid, the PH is raised. Adding humus will decrease the PH as it is also acidic. Adding fertilizer may help the plants, but it won't change the PH neither watering will.</span>

13. How is the DNA molecule divided in RFLP? In<br><br> PCR?
REY [17]

Answer:

The Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) and the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) are techniques used in molecular biology to identify polymorphisms in DNA samples obtained from different species, organisms, varieties, strains, etc. In the case of RFLP, the DNA is digested with restriction enzymes, so the resulting fragments have different lengths, while in the PCR technique the DNA fragments are obtained by successive amplification cycles and they have the same length.

C) This mutation is a recessive trait. What is the likelihood that a woman who does not possess the sickle cell trait and a man

What is Sickle cell anemia?

Sickle cell is an autosomal recessive trait of humans that arises through mutation in normal gene. The gene for this trait is found in recessive form and you need two copies of the gene - one from father and one from mother- to have the trait expressed. If the trait is expressed it causes a disease called sickle cell anemia.

People with the sickle cell anemia disease have red blood cells of crescent or sickle shape. The red blood cells of this shape can cause many complications in body. They get stuck in blood vessels and cause pain. They also die quickly and make a person anemic (pale).

Probability to have a child with sickle cell anemia:

If a mother is normal but a father is carrier for the trait,  then the situation will be as:

Here N indicate normal allele, S indicate allele for sickle cell anemia.

                                    Mother           ˣ                            Father

                                      NN                                                 NS

Gametes:            N             N                                  N                S

Offspring:           NN             NS                             NN                     NS


                                                50% :                  Normal

                                                50% :                  Carrier

                                                0%    :                 Sickle cell anemia

It means that 50 % kids will be normal and 50% will be carrier for the trait and none of the offspring will have disease Sickle cell anemia. However, those who are carriers can carry the disease to the next offspring if they are married to a carrier or a person with sickle cell anemia.

Which of the following is true? Electrical impulses in the heart cause the muscles to contract. The time of electrical recovery
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is: Electrical impulses in the heart cause the muscles to contract.

Explanation:

The heart contracts thanks to a series of electrical impulses that travel through the muscles of this organ. The electrical impulse begins in the SA (sinoatrial) node and is transmitted to the muscles that conform the left and the right atria to produce their contraction which will make the atria pump the blood to the ventricles. When the electrical impulse reaches the AV node and then the Bundle of His, this information will transmit to both ventricles and will produce their contraction as well.

The only muscle tissue capable of stimulating their own contractions is the muscle in the heart, the myocardium, thanks to the existence of "pacemaker cells" that are located in the SA node.

The waves in the ECG represent the depolarization of the atria, depolarization of the ventricles, and repolarization of the ventricles.
