Assoli18 [71]

Answer:  They possess different functional groups.

Explanation:

Organic compounds are molecules composed of many carbon atoms bound together and in turn bound to hydrogen atoms. These molecules form the lipids, proteins, carbohydrates and nucleic acids that constitute all living beings. The reason why there is so much variety of organic molecules is because each one can have one or several <u>functional groups in different positions, which gives them unique properties.</u>

So a functional group is a group of atoms linked in a certain way, which present a specific physical-chemical structure and properties that characterise the organic compounds that contain them.

Examples are:

  • Lipids: A carboxylic acid
  • Proteins: A carboxyl group and an amino group
  • Carbohydrates: An aldehyde or ketone group
  • Nucleic acids, Nucleotides: A phosphate group

How do the HIV/Aids pandemic statistics vary around the world?
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) causes AIDS (Autoimmune deficiency syndrome) and reduces the ability of body to fight infection.

HIV was first found in 1959 in a man from Democratic Republic of the Congo and then announced as a world pandemic by WHO.

Approximately 37.9 million people were infected with HIV globally in 2018 but the pandemic statistics vary around the world. Sub-Saharan Africa was most infected region from HIV in 2018 where 61% population was infected from HIV/AIDS. In South & South-East Asia, about 12% of all people infected with HIV in 2010.

Now WHO announced HIV as 'global epidemic".

Describe the steps of Transcription, and describe the steps of Translation
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

The various steps in the transcription and translation process of protein synthesis are described below.

Explanation:

Proteins (made up of amino acids) have an important role in the various functioning process of an organism. Protein synthesis which takes place in the cells of an organism consists of two major processes: transcription (DNA to RNA) and translation (RNA to protein).

Transcription: It is the first process in protein synthesis which occurs in the cell nucleus where a single-stranded messenger RNA (mRNA) is created using a DNA strand and the genetic instructions in DNA are transferred to this mRNA. The steps in transcription are initiation, elongation, and termination. The beginning process known as initiation occurs when an enzyme RNA polymerase binds to a promoter (region of a gene) and the DNA unwinds. One of the DNA strands acts as a template and the enzyme reads the bases in the template DNA strand.

The next step is elongation, where the RNA polymerase builds a strand of mRNA by the addition of nucleotides using complementary base pairs. Here, adenine (A) in the DNA binds to uracil (U) in the RNA. Termination is the last step in which the transcription process ends when the RNA polymerase comes across a termination sequence in the gene. Thus, the completed single-stranded mRNA detaches from DNA.  

Translation: It is the second process in protein synthesis which occurs in the ribosome of the cell where the genetic information in mRNA is used to create a protein from amino acids. A triplet of nucleotides is called a codon and they define amino acids. There are 64 possible codons and the codon, AUG acts as the start codon which initiates translation in addition to specifying the amino acid methionine. In the initiation step, the first amino acid in the polypeptide chain is brought by transfer RNAs (tRNAs) to bind to the start codon of mRNA. During elongation, each type of tRNAs in the cytoplasm bound to a specific codon on the mRNA template and adds the corresponding amino acid to the polypeptide chain. Stop codons (UAA, UAG, or UGA) terminate protein synthesis and release the polypeptide.
