How did the discovery of ribozymes assist in creating a plausible model for the prebiotic origin of life?

Biology
1 answer:
aleksley [76]3 years ago
3 0
Ribozymes are biochemically too complex to have ever produced themselves naturalistically. They are an intermediate cellular functioning assembly that cannot survive on its own and they are too restrictive in function to enable metabolism and reproduction at the level of criticality to be considered plausible for life.

Their simplicity relative to RNA and DNA make them an attractive possibility, but they are not strategic enough, robust enough or in any producible using naturalistic processes.

aalyn [17]

Answer:

A mutation that changes the first letter to 'C' is called<u> Frameshift mutation.</u>

Explanation:

  • <u>  FRAMESHIFT MUTATION </u> -: A frameshift mutation is a genetic mutation of a number of nucleotides caused by indels (insertions or deletions) in a DNA sequence that is not divisible by three.  A frameshift mutation (also called a framing error or a reading frame shift) The addition or deletion may alter the reading frame (the grouping of codons) due to the triplet nature of gene expression by codons resulting in a completely different translation from the root. A frameshift mutation, instead of being added or removed, is not the same as a single-nucleotide polymorphism in which a nucleotide is substituted. In general, a frameshift mutation will cause the reading of the codons to code for various amino acids after the mutation. The first stop codon ("UAA", "UGA" or "UAG") encountered in the series would also change the frameshift mutation. The polypeptide that is formed will be abnormally short or abnormally long, and most likely will not be functional.
  • Hence, the answer is<u> Frameshift Mutation</u>.

What proteins are crucial for creating and maintaining DNA replication forks? Choose the best explanation.
timurjin [86]

Answer:

Explanation:

The correct answer is (B) Helicase creates the replication fork; single-strand binding proteins keep the single strands from reuniting. The replication fork is established by the enzyme DNA helicase, which separates the two complementary strands of a DNA molecule
