The number is x  = \frac{16}{3}.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We have , Four times the sum of a number and -3 is 4 more than times the number.Let's consider step by step as :

Let the number be x , Four times sum of a number & -3 is 4 ( x - 3 ). Now, this is 4 more than times the number i.e x + 4. According to question these both statements are equivalent as :

⇒4(x - 3 ) = x + 4

⇒ 4x - 12 = x + 4

⇒ 3x = 16

⇒x  = \frac{16}{3}

Answer:

The number is \frac{16}{3} .

Explanation:

Let the number be denoted by x.

Now the sum of number and -3 is : (x-3)

Four times this sum is : 4(x-3)

The number that is 4 more than x is : 4+x

Represent these data in equation we get;

                                     4(x-3)= 4+x

                                or, 4x - 12 = 4 + x

                                or, 4x-x= 12 +4

                                or, 3x = 16

                                or, x= \frac{16}{3}

Hence the required number is  \frac{16}{3} .

Stella described protein synthesis as a process that makes the necessary proteins for the human body to function. She
insens350 [35]

The step of protein synthesis missed by Stella would be the translation of mRNA into amino acids.

The process of protein synthesis can essentially be divided into 2, namely:

  1. Transcription
  2. Translation

During transcription, genetic information on DNA is transcribed into mRNA. Once this is done, the genetic codes in mRNA are then translated to their respective amino acids and linked by peptide bonds.

The polypeptide bond undergoes further processing such as folding in the endoplasmic reticulum.

Thus, before amino acids can form a polypeptide chain, they must first be translated from genetic codes in mRNA.
