Which macromolecule provides the blueprint for living things, by storing and transmitting genetic information?

1 answer:

6 0

The nucleic acids (specifically DNA and RNA) are the macromolecule that provides the blueprint for living things by storing and transmitting genetic information.

This is because the genetic information in our bodies is stored in our DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) undergoes the processes of transcription (where it is transformed into mRNA) and translation (where the mRNA is translated into a polypeptide or protein). These two processes allow the information encoded in our genes to be expressed throughout our bodies through the usage of another macromolecule, the proteins.

Hope this helps!

The type of RNA that delivers amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis is tRNA.a) trueb) false

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

A). True

Explanation:

tRNA, which means transfer RNA is one of the three types of RNA known in nature. The tRNA is found in the ribosome, where it plays a pivotal role in protein synthesis (translation). Transfer RNA is the RNA responsible for reading the nucleotides in the mRNA codon and carrying the amino acid that corresponds those codons to the ribosome.

The tRNA has a 3-dimensional structure that allows it to carry anticodon that reads codon and also carry amino acids on opposite ends. Hence, according to this question, tRNA is a type of RNA that delivers amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis.

What are the inputs of the light dependent reactions?.

bixtya [17]

Answer:

6 water molecules (and technically sunlight/energy)

Explanation:

The inputs of photosynthesis are water and carbon dioxide (and energy); water is used in the light-dependent reactions, and carbon dioxide is used in the light-independent. The water has to be there to replace the lost electrons in the chlorophyll that leave the thylakoids after being excited by the solar energy.
