Why is the word translation used for protein production?

Biology
1 answer:
Elza [17]3 years ago
5 0
During translation, a ribosome reads a sequence of mRNA (messenger RNA) in groups of 3 bases called codons. The ribosome then calls for a tRNA (transfer RNA) molecule with another group of 3 bases that correspond to the codon. This group of bases is called an anticodon. The ribosome strings the anticodons together to create an amino acid chain, and then final processing occurs to create the desired protein. In a way, the ribosome is translating the language the mRNA is using into a language that the tRNA can understand, hence why translation is used.

All of the following are classified as abiotic factors EXCEPT
ella [17]

Answer:

In the group of terms, the exception to abiotic factors is bacteria (option b).

Explanation:

Abiotic factors correspond to the elements of an ecosystem that are not considered alive, such as soil, wind, temperature, pH, among others.

All living beings in an ecosystem are biotic elements, including microorganisms such as bacteria. The dynamics of living beings influence the ecosystem, just as abiotic factors influence both the biotic elements and the development of the ecosystem.
