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.

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

Hypothalamus

Explanation:

The portion of the brain that maintains the body’s internal balance (homeostasis).

The hypothalamus is the link between the endocrine and nervous systems.

The hypothalamus produces releasing and inhibiting hormones, which stop and start the production of other hormones throughout the body.

The hypothalamus plays a significant role in the endocrine system. It is responsible for maintaining your body’s internal balance, which is known as homeostasis. To do this, the hypothalamus helps stimulate or inhibit many of your body’s key processes, including:

Heart rate and blood pressure

Body temperature

Fluid and electrolyte balance, including thirst

Appetite and body weight

Glandular secretions of the stomach and intestines

Production of substances that influence the pituitary gland to release hormones

Sleep cycles

The hypothalamus is involved in many functions of the autonomic nervous system, as it receives information from nearly all parts of the nervous system. As such, it is considered the link between the nervous system and the endocrine system

Gardeners often use either chemicals or fences to protect their plants from pests. 60 gardeners were asked about their plant pro

vodomira [7]

There are 16 percent of farmers that are affected by the pest infestation.

What percent of gardeners overall had pests?

We know that three of the 13 farmers who used chemicals had pests whereas Seven of the 47 farmers who used fences had pests. So in total there are 10 farmers that are affected from pest out of 60 farmers.

So we can conclude that There are 16 percent of farmers that are affected by the pest infestation.
