Biology
1 answer:
muminat3 years ago
4 0

A codon is a sequence of three DNA or RNA nucleotides that corresponds with a specific amino acid or stop signal during protein synthesis. DNA and RNA molecules are written in a language of four nucleotides; meanwhile, the language of proteins includes 20 amino acids. Codons provide the key that allows these two languages to be translated into each other.

Which of the following is TRUE of a cell membranes?
adoni [48]

Answer:

B, C, Dand E are all correct

Explanation:

Why B is correct- The cell membrane, also known as the plasma membrane, is a double layer of lipids and proteins that surrounds a cell and separates the cytoplasm (the contents of the cell) from its surrounding environment. It is selectively permeable, which means that it only lets certain molecules enter and exit.

Plants, animals, and bacteria have a cell membrane. Why d is correcect

Why C is correct- The cell membrane is not a solid structure. It is made of millions of smaller molecules that create a flexible and porous container. Proteins and phospholipids make up most of the membrane structure.

Why E is correct- The plasma membrane is primarily composed of phospholipids arranged in a bilayer, with the hydrophobic tails on the interior of the membrane, and the hydrophilic heads pointing outwards

Why A Is Not correct- It is very fragile and its role is to hold the cell together and to help control what substances can get in and out. It is partially permeable, allowing only some substances to pass through it. The membrane has a complex structure consisting of a phospholipid bi-layer and different types of proteins.

A lab assistant needs to mix up the following reaction to prepare DNA for an experiment:_________.
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The total solution formed after mixing the components will be

20 μl + 20 μl + 40 μl + 120 μl = 200 μl

The smallest size tube that will hold the entire reaction is:

Firstly convert 200μl to ml

1000 μl = 1 ml

200 μl = X

X = 200 x 1/1000

X = 0.2 ml

The smallest size tube (from the options provided in the question) is 0.25 ml.

The pipetting device that could be used to accurately measure all the needed volumes must be able to measure 20 μl, 40 μl and 120 μl.

The best pipette to accurately take these measurements individually is the P200 micropipette because it has an accurate/useful range of between 20 μl - 200 μl

Tay-Sachs disease is due to the absence of an enzyme that
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer: <em>D. Causes an accumulation of lipids in brain cells</em>

Explanation:

Tay-Sachs disease is caused by a genetic mutation in the <em>HEXA</em> gene. It is an autosomal recessive disease that causes the mutation on an enzyme, which metabolizes <em>GM2 Ganglioside</em> in nerve cells, this leads to a build-up of the molecule in brain cells. At the moment there is no cure for the disease, only support treatment is available.
