The right option is; d. Immune system

The immune system is responsible for defending the body against harmful substances.

The immune system is the body’s defense system that protects the body against infectious pathogens and other invaders. The immune system is composed of many biological structures (special cells, proteins, tissues, and organs) and processes that functions together to protect the body. White blood cells are one of the important cells of the immune system that destroy harmful substances or disease-causing organisms that invade body systems.

Angelina_Jolie [31]

The correct answer is: The addition of a 7-mG cap at the 5' end of the transcript and the addition of a poly-A sequence at the 3' end of the message

These posttranscriptional processes are called:

• 5’ capping - It protects the mRNA from 5' degradation by exonucleases. Cap is also involved in ribosomal binding.

• Polyadenilation or addition of poly(A) tail – It also protects mRNA from degradation of 3’exonucleases.  A long poly(A) tail can also increase translation.

Sort the molecules in the glycolysis pathway based on whether they are intermediates or products in the first half of the pathwa
n200080 [17]

Answer:

Intermediates or products in the first half of the pathway that requires energy are:

glucose-6-phosphate

fructose-6-phosphate

fructose-1,6-bisphosphate

dihydroxyacetone phosphate

glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate

Intermediates in the second half of the pathway that produces energy are:

1,3-bisphosphoglycerate

3-phosphoglycerate

2-phosphoglycerate

phosphoenolpyruvate

Explanation:

Glycolysis is the process  in which glucose is broken down to pyruvate in order to produce energy. It occurs in cytosol and it can be divided into two phases: phase that requires energy (two ATP molecules are used)  and phase that produces energy (four ATP molecules together with two NADH are produced).

After the glycolysis, which is the first step in cellular respiration, final products (two pyruvats) are further used. The next steps are: pyruvate oxidation, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.
