I think that the answer is 12 billion. So sorry if I am not right.
The answer to that is James Watson and Francis Crick although if you search up on a search engine who found it Francis Crick will only show up.
Answer:
ACA: Threonine
CAC: Histidine
Explanation:
To answer this question we need to remember that the ribosome reads every three bases or 'codon' in order to assign the right tRNA carrying the amino acid.
In the first artificial mRNA we see two patterns of three letter:
CAC and ACA.
In the second artificial mRNA we are able to identify three different patterns:
CAA
AAC
ACA
And they repeat, so we end with three different polypeptides: polythreonine, polyglutamine and polyasparagine. This will depend on the initial letter the ribosome starts reading.
The only amino acid that repeats in both artificial mRNAs is Threonine, and we see its pattern ACA also repeated.
So, we could assign this codon (ACA) to threonine.
We can then assume that the pattern CAC codifies for histidine since we only get this two polypeptides in the first mRNA.
Lastly with the information provided we cannot determine the codons AAC and CAA for glutamine or asparagine. We would need further experiments.
Answer:
D - the production of a specific mRNA will increase as a result of the binding of the hormone receptor complex to the DNA
Explanation:
We are told that the hormone binds a receptor and then enters the cell, binding to the DNA and promoting transcription of a specific gene.
Transcription is the process whereby mRNA molecules are synthesised from a DNA sequence, which are then translated into specific process. D is correct, as the gene the hormone binds to will increase in transcription, producing a specific mRNA.
A, B and C are much more general processes, not linked to the actions of a hormone on a specific gene.
New moon: we see darkness (aka nothing)
Waxing crescent moon: we see a sliver of light that indicates the crescent (during this time, the moon moves eastward away from the sun)
First quarter moon: when half the moon's face is illuminated.
Gibbous moon: when more than half the moon is illuminated, we call this a gibbous
Full moon: we see the whole round moon, lit up.
Waning gibbous moon: when the moon becomes thinner, but is still lit up for over half of its shape.
Third quarter moon: this is where the moon shows the other half of itself (that we didn't see in the 1st quarter) while the other half is dark.
Waning crescent moon: when the moon is a thin crescent, traveling down into the darkness of the full moon.
This process takes about a month (29.53 days).
