How did the discovery of ribozymes assist in creating a plausible model for the prebiotic origin of life?
aleksley [76]
Ribozymes are biochemically too complex to have ever produced themselves naturalistically. They are an intermediate cellular functioning assembly that cannot survive on its own and they are too restrictive in function to enable metabolism and reproduction at the level of criticality to be considered plausible for life.

Their simplicity relative to RNA and DNA make them an attractive possibility, but they are not strategic enough, robust enough or in any producible using naturalistic processes.

djverab [1.8K]

Complete question: While taking a walk in a park, Muskaan observed an insect on a pitcher plant (Nepenthes). Immediately the flower opened up and the insect slid down. To which of the following categories does the pitcher plant belongs?

a) Saprophytes

b) Insectivorous

c) Parasite

d) Symbiotic

Answer:

The correct answer is option b. Insectivorous

Explanation:

A carnivorous or insectivorous plant is the one that obtains most of its nutritional necessities from the capture and consumption of protozoans or animals, especially insects and arthropods.

These insectivorous plants grow in poorly nutritional soil, so they need to get nutrients from their prey. These species attract and trap their prey, and by the action of specific enzymes and digestive bacterias, they can absorb the insects' nutrients.

These insectivorous plants make use of their flowers to trap the prey. These tramp flowers are cup-shaped, and at the bottom of this cup, there is a liquid where insects get trapped and die.

Insects are attracted by aromas produced by the edges of the trap and when they land, they slip and fall inside, and once drowned, the enzymes digest them.

makkiz [27]

Answer:

The correct answer will be-

1. Nucleosomes

2. Chromatin

3. Sister chroamtid

4. Centromere

Explanation:

The DNA is a very long molecule which if has to be passed on to the daughter cell as it is will cause problems. So, to reduce problems a cell form tightly packed structure of DNA so that they can be passed easily to the daughter cell.

The packaging of DNA begins with the wrapping of the DNA around histone proteins which forms the 11 nm basic structural units called nucleosomes. The nucleosomes start condensing each other and form 30 nm structure chromatin fibres.

The chromatin fibres undergo replication during S phase which produces an exact copy of the chromatin called sister chromatids bound to each other at a central point called centromere which helps the separation of the chromatids during M phase.
