The production of protein molecules through transcription and translation

Biology

Tpy6a [65]4 years ago

Transcription occurs in the nucleus of the cell. RNA polymerase breaks the hydrogen bonds and unzips a portion of DNA. RNA nucleotides match the DNA strand forming mRNA. In mRNA thymine is replaced by uracil. Once mRNA is formed it leaves the nucleus through a nuclear pore into the cytoplasm. The purpose of mRNA is to remove the protein code out of the nucleus without pulling the DNA out. mRNA then needs to find ribosomes in the cytoplasm which can be found on the rough ER. mRNA has read three bases at the same time and these are called codons. Ribosomes read the mRNA code and add the correct amino acid using tRNA. tRNA has an anti-codon on one end which will match a specific codon, and a specific amino acid on the other end. This will make translation happen. 

Translation- mRNA attaches to a ribosome and a start codon must be read. tRNA brings the first amino acid which matches the codon on mRNA. The next tRNA molecule moves in and matches with the codon on mRNA while amino acids form a peptide bond. First tRNA detaches itself and mRNA shifts for the next tRNA molecule to come in. Protein grows until a stop codon is reached and then it's ready to finish folding to become functional.

How are producers and consumers alike
Leona [35]

Answer:

The producers generate food for themselves and others; consumers do not produce anything, instead eating producers, other consumers or both. Organisms that eat only producers (i.e., plants) are called herbivores. Animals that eat only consumers (i.e., meat) are called carnivores

Alchen [17]

Answer: omega 3's

Explanation:

-combination of marine & food biotechnology

-polyunstaturated fatty acids (PUFAs)

-3 types in human physiology

->α-linolenic acid (ALA) - found in plant oils

->eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)

->docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)

-N-3 fatty acids have health benefits & are considered essential fatty acids, meaning that they cannot be synthesized by the human body - but are vital for normal metabolism

->table of dietary source of Omega-3

-->fish is commonly used but dangerous as you can contract mercury poisoning

PLATE TECTONICS<br><br> please answer i’m using the rest of my points
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

I am 90% sure that it is Number 3. Sorry if it wrong...

Explanation:

Most volcanoes form at the boundaries of Earth's tectonic plates. ... The two types of plate boundaries that are most likely to produce volcanic activity are divergent plate boundaries and convergent plate boundaries. Divergent Plate Boundaries. At a divergent boundary, tectonic plates move apart from one another.

An earthquake is caused by a sudden slip on a fault. ... When the stress on the edge overcomes the friction, there is an earthquake that releases energy in waves that travel through the earth's crust and cause the shaking that we feel.

Hope this helped!!!!
