Answer:

B) Telomerase is a ribonuclear protein containing a section of RNA complementary to the telomeres

C. telomerase is reactivated in cancer cells, contributing to their immortality

Explanation:

  • Telomerase elongates telomere ends
  • Telomerase binds to a RNA molecule containing  a sequence complementary to the telomeric repeat.
  • Telomerase is usually not active in somatic cells but is active in cancer cells- the protein acts to extend the shortened telomeres in these cells preventing them from dying

The human eye can detect wavelengths between 400 nm and 700 nm. The sky appears blue (490 nm) due to the scattering of visible l
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

In the electromagnetic spectrum, the visible spectrum is the part, which is perceptible to the human eye. The electromagnetic spectrum in this array of wavelengths is known as simply light or the visible light. A general human eye will react towards the wavelengths in the range between 380 to 740 nm. A human eye sees the sky as blue that comes in the wavelength 490 nm because of the scattering of the visible light by the particles in the atmosphere. This concludes that 490 nm is the sole wavelength, which is reaching the eye.

During transcription, enzymes bind to a molecule of DNA. Then, the enzymes unwind and separate the DNA's double helical strands.

MRNA or messenger RNA. As the central dogma of biotech goes, DNA is transcribed to mRNA which is translated to tRNA, after which the amino acids form peptide bonds and form proteins. So when you see transcription, the first thing you think of is DNA to mRNA.
