Chromosomal alterations are mutations that change chromosome structure. Point mutations change a single nucleotide. Frameshift mutations are additions or deletions of nucleotides that cause a shift in the reading frame.
Ethonal is produced during b. Alcohol fermentation that converst sugars into ethanol.
<span>The correct answer is horizontal gene transfer, transduction.</span>
Transduction (a type of horizontal gene transfer)is the process by which foreign DNA is introduced into a bacteria cell. When viruses infect bacterial cells, their DNA is integrated into a bacterial chromosome and thus harness the replicational, transcriptional, and translation machinery of the bacteria. As a result, bacteria cell makes numerous virions (viral particles).
The answer is B. Geology has shown a thin layer of iridium (a rare mineral on earth but found on asteroids and meteors) in the rock layers between the Cretaceous and Paleogene periods. Below this layer are numerous fossils of pterosaurs and dinosaurs, but above the layer are drastically few. The aftermath of asteroid impact is believed to have smothered most vegetation from earth which dinosaurs depended on as a source of food.
Answer:
Transcription and translation occur simultaneously in prokaryotes.
Explanation:
Prokaryotes lack membrane-bound organelles and therefore, do not have a nucleus. Transcription and translation occur in the cytoplasm. As soon as the required length of mRNA is being formed, ribosomes join it and start the process of translation. Prokaryotic genes lack introns. The primary transcript formed by transcription in prokaryotes does not undergo splicing.
On the other hand, the process of transcription occurs in the nucleus in eukaryotes while translation occurs in the cytoplasm. The primary transcript formed by transcription in eukaryotes undergoes modifications to remove introns and to add a poly-A tail and 5' cap. Post-transcriptional modifications and spatial separation of two processes in eukaryotes result in slower translation than prokaryotes.
