Based on this observation you would predict that the MISFOLDED BETA AMYLOID PROTEINS COULD NOT BE REFOLDED BY THE CHAPERONE PROTEINS.
Chaperon proteins are proteins which assist newly formed proteins to form correctly. A protein that is already mis-folded can not be refolded by the chaperone proteins.

High-latitude ocean water tends to support large planktonic communities because ________. of higher dissolved carbon dioxide the
aleksklad [387]

Answer: They tend to support large planktonic

communities because (of higher dissolved oxygen and nutrient concentrations).

Explanation:

Planktonic communities are made up of basic organisms that forms the oceanic food web. They are broadly divided into Phytoplankton (these are the producers), Zooplankton (these are the consumers) and Bacterioplankton (these are the recyclers).

High-latitude ocean water is mostly affected by the quantity of oxygen and nutrients it contains. Large planktonic communities thrives in these aquatic environment because is contains higher amount of dissolved oxygen and nutrient concentrations which forms part of their basic needs for survival. This is so because changes in ocean water can impact all levels of the food web. Increase or decrease in ocean temperature can modify the plankton diversity and distribution directly by altering it's metabolic rates and growth.

Therefore due to the geographic location of high latitude ocean, higher dissolved oxygen and nutrient concentrations favour the survival of a larger planktonic communities than other ocean parts.

Which of the following correctly describes the process of Translation?
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

I. tRNA anticodon bonds to mRNA codon

II. Ribosome bonds to mRNA strand

III. Ribosome reaches a STOP codon and detaches from the mRNA

IV. Each tRNA adds an Amino Acid to the chain as the Ribosome moves along the mRNA

Explanation:

Translation is the second process of gene expression in which a protein molecule is synthesized from the information in a mRNA strand. Translation occurs in the RIBOSOME (an organnelle for protein synthesis made up of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and proteins). The process of translation occurs in three stages viz: Initiation, Elongation and Termination.

Initiation occurs when the ribosome binds to the mRNA strand in the cytoplasm. The mRNA sequence is then read in a group of three nucleotides called CODON by the ANTICODON of a transfer RNA (tRNA). The basis of reading is the complementary base pairing rule i.e. A-U, G-C. Options I and II describes this stage.

In the elongation stage, the tRNA carries an amino acid corresponding to what it reads in the mRNA codon to the growing polypeptide chain. The amino acids bonds to one another via a peptide bond. As each codon is being read, the mRNA gradually moves over the means sequence. Option IV describes this stage.

Elongation stage continues until any of the stop codons (UAA, UAG, and UGA) are finally encountered by the trans in the ribosome. Since, there are no corresponding anticodons that can read the stop codons, they signal the termination of the translation process. The ribosome then detaches from the mRNA sequence. Option III describes this stage.

Note, option V describes TRANSCRIPTION not TRANSLATION.

at which location does gravity play a role in moving tectonic plates? at the edge of the plates. in the core. in the mantle. in
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

B. At the edge of the plates

Explanation:

<u>Gravity </u>is the principal <u>driving force </u>of <u>plate tectonics </u>(second one is convection<u>)</u>. It causes different density plates to move on the Earth's surface. However, when a <u>denser plate coincides the less denser plate, the high density plate subducts</u> below the <u>lesser density plate</u>. The process, therefore, is called <u>subduction</u>. During this collision of plates, <u>shearing resistance increases</u> and all <u>pressures come at the edge of the plate</u>. The process continues and the lithosphere drags the rest of the plate. The portion of plate below the less denser plate then reaches the mantle. Here, the edge of plate is destroyed due to high temperature of mantle as well as pressure.
