The existence of introns in mRNA-encoding genes seems to be a problem because so much cellular energy goes into splicing them ou
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

In normal conditions, introns serve following functions in the body of an organism:

1) They contain genes of miRNA which are known as Mirtrons, reverse transcriptase, endonucleases, transposase etc.

2) It is because of presence of introns that alternative splicing of mRNA is possible. The sex determination in drosophila is based on alternative splicing.

Apart from this, alternative splicing can be useful and beneficial in an unforeseen situation such as an environmental problem which is faced by the organism for the first time.

Explanation:

Alternative splicing is an important mechanism because with the help of alternative splicing different type of proteins can be synthesized from the same pre mRNA transcript. In case suddenly the surrounding environment of an organism is changed and the environmental conditions have become extremely harsh due to which organism's life is at stake, in such situation organism may make a different type of protein through alternative splicing which can help the organism in survival.  

Default splicing in Drosophila leads to the development of male off-spring while female off-spring is produced as a result of alternative splicing.

Temperature inversions occur naturally in the stratosphere and thermosphere, but also occur closer to the surface of earth in th
skelet666 [1.2K]

Temperature inversion or thermal inversion is a phenomenon during which the temperature increase when there is an increase in the altitude. It is an uncommon process that happens in the troposphere-the layer of atmosphere closest to the earth.  

When there is an increase in temperature with altitude that warm air acts as a blockage for the cool air near the surface of the earth. So this is just opposite to the normal behavior of the air, where it becomes cooler with an increase in altitude.

So how air circulation behaves during inversion?

So as we said that the cool air nearer to the earth will be blocked by a layer of warm air. This blockage will hinder the circulation of air upwards from the lower layers. Let’s see how:

• As we know that, warm air is less dense and more buyout than cool air and normally less dense warm air is close to the earth and cool air is in above layers. But when the process is reversed, this warm air acts like a blanket for the proper circulation of air. Due to this, many environmental pollutants which normally leave the earth during air circulation get trapped in our air.  

• The trapped environmental pollutants like nitrogen oxides and hydrocarbons get convert into harmful ozone that ultimately deteriorates the quality of air and causes problems like smog.

• The improper air circulation also causes suspension of the harmful gases near the earth instead of allowing them to leave the earth atmosphere. This ultimately causes air pollution.  

• When smoke will not rise, carbon dioxide will be build up in the atmosphere; this will cause greenhouse effect and global warming.

Therefore, air circulation behaves very different during temperature inversion process and poses hazardous effects on global climate.

Hope it helps! :)

What process is occurring in this picture at B?
Liula [17]

Answer:

Translation

Explanation:

Translation is the second process that occurs in protein synthesis. It is the process whereby mRNA template is used to synthesize an amino acid sequence, which eventually becomes a protein.

The process of translation occurs in the cytoplasm (specifically in the ribosome). As depicted in this image, the mRNA produced during transcription is transported out of the nucleus into the cytoplasm. A RNA molecule called tRNA reads the mRNA sequence (codon by codon) and carries corresponding amino acid into the growing amino acid sequence.

Hence, according to this question, the process occuring at B according to this image is TRANSLATION.
