the process of transcription is defined as a process by which cells are able to allow for expression of their genes. this involves how DNA is read and written into RNA (mainly messenger RNA). mRNA production then guides the synthesis of various proteins. the process of transcription occurs in three stages which include initiation, elongation and termination. when certain signals interact with the promoter of a gene, transcription is initiated allowing for some regions of the DNA to be transcribed in the 5 to 3' direction. such that the newly synthesized strand of mRNA is complementary to the non coding sequence. Controlling the production of mRNA in the nucleus allows the regulation of gene expression.
Fungi are an example of saprotrophs i.e. organisms who live and feed on dead organic matter. Saprotrophic nutrition is described as chemoheterotrophic extracellular digestion. It involves the extracellular release of digestive enzymes on the organic matter. The enzymes break down the organic matter into a simpler form, which is then absorbed by the fungus.
Photosynthesis is the process of converting light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose, in small structures called chloroplasts. The glucose made in photosynthesis is then used during cellular respiration.
Answer: The effects of which are devastating to human life, flora and fauna, which depend on these resources for their survival. Contamination of water causes disruptions of food chains and destruction of ecosystems. A deadly by-product of this water pollution is the spread of water-borne diseases such as cholera, typhoid etc.
