Its' base can vary. The sugar (deoxyribose) stays the same. And the phosphate also stays the same. There are four different bases. The arrangement of the bases in threes are called condons. These code for amino acids. These make proteins which make us what we are. The codes are also called genes.

What would happen if introns were not removed during RNA processing?
Savatey [412]

Answer:

The protein would be incorrect and the protein might not function.

Explanation:

We know that introns carry information but introns not only carry information to build a protein. They have to be removed for the mRNA to encode a protein with the right protein sequence.

If the spliceosome fails to remove an intron, an mRNA with extra "junk" will be created in it. As a result, a wrong protein will be created during translation.

If a wrong protein sequence is created, it will hamper the whole translation process. The protein won't function properly.

Which step in the Gram stain is the critical step in differentiating Gram negative cells from Gram positive cells?
rewona [7]

Answer:

The rapid decolorization with ethanol or acetone

and counterstaining with safranin

When a decolorizer such as alcohol or acetone is added, it interacts with the lipids of the cell membrane. A gram-negative cell loses its outer lipopolysaccharide membrane, and the inner peptidoglycan layer is left exposed: when safranin is added they will turn red. Conversely, gram-positives retain the Cristal violet and will color in purple
