A large deposit of sand and soil formed at the end of a river is a delta. When a river empties into the ocean, the current carrying smaller particles, such as soil and sand, slows down and eventually stops, causing these particles to be dropped off on the shore. This eventually leads to a triangular deposit, usually referred to as the mouth of the river.

In which step of protein synthesis does the rRNA make protein?

Inessa [10]

Answer:

Translation is the second part of the central dogma of molecular biology: RNA → Protein. It is the process in which the genetic code in mRNA is read to make a protein. Translation is illustrated in the diagram below. After mRNA leaves the nucleus, it moves to a ribosome, which consists of rRNA and proteins.

Explanation:

Within the ribosome, the rRNA molecules direct the catalytic steps of protein synthesis — the stitching together of amino acids to make a protein molecule. In fact, rRNA is sometimes called a ribozyme or catalytic RNA to reflect this function.

Salivary amylase is released in the mouth where it breaks down sugars. however, it is inactive once it reaches the stomach where

GREYUIT [131]

<span>Amylase needs an optimum pH for its activity. It is in the range of 6-7. Below or above pH will denature this enzyme. The pH level is optimum for this enzyme in the mouth and hence it catalyses the break down of sugar. The pH level of stomach is lower than its optimum level duet to the activity of gastric acid. Hence the enzyme becomes inactive in the stomach.</span>
