“Heredity and environment play an important role in determining human development and behavior”.

Biology
1 answer:
vovikov84 [41]3 years ago

Answer:

Heredity is a term that refers to something we have gained from our parents, they can be some physical traits like appearance or behavioral traits like generosity, ethics etc.

When we talk about development of an individual, science has proved that both heredity and environment play a crucial role. There is no doubt that certain things are predetermined in our genetic make up like our height, weight and complexion etc but there are several ways in which environment influences and modifies those traits.

Let's take some examples:

  • A kid is born in Africa whose parents inherited just appropriate and ideal height and intelligence to him, But he was surrounded by the conditions where he could not get sufficient food , minerals and nutrients that hindered  not only his physical growth and development but his intelligence level did not reach that potential too that was predetermined in  his genes. So, we can say that environment influenced the kid and modified the traits he inherited from parents.
  • Similarly, there are many boys that inherit fair complexions from their parents but they have a lot of sun exposure due to out door sports and activities. So, parents observe that after teens their complexion is getting towards darker tone although in preadolescence they were just as fair as other siblings. This is proven by studies that sun exposure turns the skin tan and darker than original tone.

Therefore, we can say that both Heredity and environment play an important role in determining human development and behavior.

List and describe the role of the 3 types of rna.
steposvetlana [31]

<span>There are three RNAs with a role in the synthesis of protein.</span>

mRNA, or messenger RNA, is the link between a gene and a protein. The main role of this ribonucleic acid is in transcription (”reading“) of DNA. The DNA is transcribed by RNA polymerase, and the resulting product of this process is mRNA. This form of RNA can be modified post-transcriptionally with methylguanosine caps and polyadenosine tails. RNA carries the genetic information which is copied from DNA and the information has a form of three-base code (“words”), codons. Each of these codons specifies a particular amino acid.

tRNA or transfer RNA is the molecule with the main function in translation by "decoding" the mRNA message during this process. Each type of amino acid has its own type of tRNA and also has a three-base sequence (anticodon) that can bind complementary with the codons in the mRNA.

rRNA or ribosomal RNA is a main component of ribosomes. rRNA associates with a set of proteins to form ribosomes which catalyze the assembly of amino acids into polypeptide chains (protein).

 

<span>There are also a few more types of RNA which have a regulatory function like, microRNA or siRNA.</span>
