The actively dividing cells, or meristems, control plant growth. Primary (apical) meristems, the dividing tissue at the tips of the roots, grow longer roots, and secondary meristems, the dividing tissue seen in the cross-sections, grow thicker roots.
Answer:
Function:
mRNA: mRNA can be described serves intermediate molecule between the genetic material and the amino acids for the making of protein.
rRNA: It makes up the ribosomes along with the ribosomal proteins. Ribosomes are the sites where the process of translation occurs.
tRNA: The tRNA is involved in the bringing of the nucleotides to the ribososmes for translation.
How do the genes in our DNA influence our characteristics? For example, how can a gene determine
whether a person is an albino with very pale skin and hair?
Basically, a gene is a segment of DNA that provides the instructions for making a protein, and
proteins influence our characteristics. This chart describes how two different versions of a gene result
in two different versions of a protein which in turn can result in either normal skin and hair color or
albinism.
DNA Protein Characteristic
Version of the gene that provides
instructions to make
normal protein enzyme
Normal enzyme that makes the
pigment molecule in skin and
hair
Normal skin and hair
color
Version of the gene that provides
instructions to make
defective enzyme
Defective enzyme that does
not make this pigment
molecule
Albinism (very pale
skin and hair)
A gene directs the synthesis of a protein by a two-step process.
The first step is transcription of the gene in the DNA.
Transcription produces a messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule.
The second step is translation of the mRNA molecule.
Translation produces a protein molecule.
During transcription, the sequence of
nucleotides in a gene in the DNA is
copied to a corresponding sequence
of nucleotides in mRNA.
During translation, the sequence of
nucleotides in the mRNA determines
the sequence of amino acids in the
protein.
After translation, the sequence of amino acids in the protein determines the structure and function of
the protein. Differences in protein function can influence characteristics such as normal skin and hair
color vs. albinism.
A tendon is a band of connective tissue that connects the muscles to the bones.the tendons and muscles work together to control joint movement. when a muscle contracts it pulls the tendon, which then pulls the bone to cause movement.
-you didnt give me any statements but i hope this help <span />
