The process of RNA editing is the alteration of the sequence of nucleotides in the RNA after it has been transcribed from DNA, but before it is translated into a protein. RNA editing occurs by two distinct mechanisms:<em><u /><u>Substitution</u> <u>editing </u></em>and <u><em>Insertion/</em></u><em></em><u><em>deletion</em></u><em> <u>editing</u></em>.
<u><em>Substitution editing</em></u> is the chemical alteration of individual nucleotides. These alterations are catalyzed by enzymes that recognize a specific target sequence of nucleotides:
*Cytidine Deaminases that convert a C in the RNA to uracil.
*<em />adenosine deaminases that convert an A to inosine,which the ribosome translates as a G.<span>Thus a CAG codon</span><span> (for Gln) can be converted to a CGG codon (for Arg).
<em><u>*Insertion/deletion editing</u></em><em><u /></em><u /> is the insertion or deletion of nucleotides in an RNA.
These alterations are mediated by guide RNA molecules that base-pair as best they can with the RNA to be edited and serve as a template for the addition( or removal) in the target.</span>
"Adjacent chromatids in homologous chromosomes cross over during meiosis in sperm and egg formation" is the one among the following choices that describes what <span>causes genetic variation during human sexual reproductive processes. The correct option among all the options given in the question is the second option.</span>
C.
6CO2 + 6H2O + Light -> C6H12O6 + 6O2
Light is needed as energy in order for photosynthesis to occur. Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and glucose.
Answer:
Three different genotypes and two different colors
Explanation:
Because both rats have heterozygous genes, meaning they have 2 different alleles, ex: "Yy") The offspring can have different genotypes and colors because the parents have heterozygous genes.
hope this helps!
They are viruses that infect bacteria and require a bacterial host in order to replicate themselves
