What information does RNA code for?

Biology

Answer:

B) protein synthesis

Explanation:

An RNA codes for protein synthesis. A triplet of nucleotides/bases in RNA helps in adding an amino acid into the protein strand. This triplet of nucleotides is knwon as codon and helps in adding amino acid which is specific to it. For example, AUG triplet codes for methionine while UGG codes for tryptophan. The amino acids get added in protein strand unless a stop codon is reached. Triplets UAA, UAG & UGA are stop codons.  Here it may be noted that initially a polypeptide chain is synthesized by RNA but the ultimate goal of making that polypeptide chain is protein synthesis.

Answer: The correct answer is -

B) protein synthesis.

Explanation:

RNA (ribonucleic acid) contains codon (a sequence of three nucleotides that code for particular amino acid) sequences that help in the process of protien synthesis (translation).

The genetic information is transferred particularly from mRNA to proteins at the site called ribosomes.

tRNA (transfer RNA) molecule arrives at ribosome with specific amino acid according to the codon present in the mRNA.

In this way, a long chain of amino acids is assembled to form proteins.

Thus, option B) is the right answer.

Is it possible to find the same gene in two different kinds of organisms but not find the protein that is produced from that gen
Bingel [31]
Yes, quite frankly it is possible to find a same gene if you're in the same class of species, but finding the protein....I believe that's impossible because in every type of gene, you have the same proteins that make you function the same way. Without them you wouldn't be able to function properly.

If I found the same gene in all organisms that I've tested, I would be intrigued because that would be a giant step in evolution. My reason for this answer is because if you have the same gene that would technically mean we all specifically came from the same species of animals.

No, that's not true because other characteristics would eventually help us in many things, studies would help us get our brain much stronger and the intelligence level would be extraordinary.

Let us go over the definitions and the functions of each term:
a) Gene is a bit vague but in general it means a part of DNA that encodes one protein. Genes are the building blocks of our genomes but not the answer to this question.
b)mRNA. This is correct. The name itself means messengerRNA and its role is to copy the genetic information in the nucleus and bring it outside to be translated into protein.
c) ATP is an important molecule in our metabolism; energy is stored in this molecule and then used. It has no relationship to the mechanisms concerning DNA.
d) Thymine is one of the 4 nucleotide bases that are found in DNA, the other three being guanine, cytosine and adenine. They are essential components of a nucleotide (building blocks of DNA and RNA) but again, they do not transfer information out of the nucleus.

Determine whether each of the following is a characteristic of the life cycle of a seed plant, a seedless plant, or both. Double
Gnoma [55]

Double fertilization-plants with seeds (flowering plants), two male gametes joining with female gametophyte

Gametophyte generation-both (haploid, sexual stage stage-gametophyte, and the diploid stage that produces spores – sporophyte)

Endosperm formed-plants with seed because it is a tissue formed inside the seed which surrounds the embryo and provides nutrition

Mitosis-both (mitosis occurres in spores)

Spores develop into gametophytes-both but, in seedless plants sporophyte produces spores that will develop into a new organism (multicellular gametophyte) using mitosis, while spores of seed plants are produced internally and develop into more complex structures.
