How are DNA and mRNA alike
Marrrta [24]
<span>They are composed of similar materials: DNA is a deoxyribonucleotide polymer while RNA is a ribonucleotide polymer. A nucleotide is composed of a nitrogenous base, a sugar, and a phosphate group. In ribonucleotides, the sugar is ribose, while in deoxynucleotides, the sugar is deoxyribose. Adenine, guanine, and cytosine are nitrogenous bases in both DNA and RNA, while thymine is found only in DNA and uracil is found only in RNA.</span>

Various characteristics of the lipids in a membrane contribute to its fluidity-- which in turn determines how easily molecules c
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

The correct answers: A, B, C.

Explanation:

  • Lipid bilayer is made of two layers of phospholipids, where each phospholipid molecule is made up of a glycerol which is attached to a phosphate group and two fatty acid chains by ester bonds.
  • The phosphate groups being hydrophilic are directed towards the outside of the bilayer. The fatty acid chains (saturated or unsaturated) being hydrophobic are directed towards the inside of the bilayer.
  • These fatty acid chains are not static and are capable of moving laterally in the bilayer, giving the bilayer the characteristics of fluidity.
  • The fluidity is mainly provided by the presence of unsaturated (with one or multiple double bonds) fatty acid. The presence of double bonds results in the fatty acid molecules to have a bent shape and this increases the area occupied by each such unsaturated fatty acid molecule. The free area available allows the lateral movement of the fatty acid molecules.
  • According to option A, long chain fatty acids tend to occupy more space within the lipid bilayer. This reduces the free space available for the movement of the lipid molecules.
  • According to option B, saturated fatty acids are those which lacks any double bonds and the carbon atoms are attached by single bonds. Therefore, these molecules are straight in shape and occupy maximum area in the lipid bilayer. This reduces the space available for the free movement of fatty acid molecules, thereby making the membrane less fluid in nature.
  • According to option C, cholesterol is a type of lipid molecule. They remain interspersed in between lipid molecules. At high temperatures, they prevent the lipid molecules from getting excessively fluid by filling in the gaps in between the lipid molecules and at very low temperatures they prevent the stiffening of the lipid molecules by getting associated with each other. At room temperature, they stabilise the lipid molecules between whom they remain interspersed and also reduce the free space in between them thereby reducing the lateral movement. This way they reduce the fluidity.

Describe a function of genes that do not produce proteins
VikaD [51]

Answer:

Noncoding DNA does not provide instructions for making proteins. ... Such elements provide sites for specialized proteins (called transcription factors) to attach (bind) and either activate or repress the process by which the information from genes is turned into proteins (transcription).
