The form of RNA that your are referring to is tRNA. tRNA stands for t(ransfer) R(ibosomal) N(ucleic) A(cid). tRNA transports amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis.

Answer:

tRNA

Explanation:

tRNA is a molecule synthesized from the process of transcribing DNA into segments located in specific regions of chromosomes. It is involved with protein synthesis in the mechanism of gene translation.

This molecule is responsible for driving amino acids to form the polypeptide chains that make up proteins. Its role in gene translation can be understood by parts:

  • The mRNA (messenger RNA), bringing the DNA coding for protein synthesis, is associated with the smaller ribosome subunit. This ribosome will traverse the ends of mRNA, catalyzing the union of amino acids.
  • Each tRNA, carrying a specific amino acid, binds to the mRNA codons through its anticodons. The tRNA that initiates protein synthesis is what transports methionine. Its anticodon has the UAC sequence, so it binds to the mRNA codon AUG sequence. In the same way, the other tRNAs fit their amino acids, which, by ribosome action, are joined by peptide bonds.
  • As the ribosome “glides” over the mRNA molecule, the amino acids brought by the tRNA bind in each predecessor and are carried by the ribosome until it arrives at a stop codon.

By the end of this process, the amino acids brought by the tRNA will then have formed the polypeptide chain. The mRNAs, ribosomes and tRNAs participating in the process separate and the formed protein is released.

Action potential in a motor neuron triggers the release of what neurotransmitter?
vodomira [7]

Answer:

Action potential in a motor neuron triggers the release of acetylcholine (ACh) neurotransmitter.

Explanation:

Acetylcholine: It is a neurotransmitter released by motor neurons which bind to the receptors end plates of the motor. When an action potential travel down the motor neuron's axon, neurotransmitter release occurs resulting in an influx of calcium and altered permeability of the synaptic terminal membrane.

The Ca2+ ions allow synaptic vesicles to move and bind with the presynaptic membrane which is present on the neuron and released neurotransmitter from the vesicles into the synaptic cleft. Once it's released ACh diffusion occurs across the synaptic cleft to the motor end plate, and binds with ACh receptor. As the neurotransmitter ACh binds, these ions channel open and sodium ions cross the membrane into the muscle cells.

In this phase reduction of voltage inside and outside the cell occurs, which is known as depolarization. When ACh binds to the motor end plate this depolarization is known as end plate potential. Then depolarization spread with the sarcolemma and creating an action potential. This action potential moves the entire cell and creating a wave of depolarization.

Which human activity would help reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Burning coal  

Explanation:

The emissions of carbon dioxide would reduce because then they will consume less gasoline. Instead of coal burning, this would reduce the overall concentrations of greenhouse gas emissions and generate energy from wind.
