Hydrolysis of which molecule is important for translation initiation, elongation, and termination?

Biology
1 answer:
abruzzese [7]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

D. GTP

Explanation:

Initiation of protein synthesis includes binding of mRNA to small ribosome subunit and initiation aminoacyl tRNA. The pairing of the anticodon of the initiating aminoacyl tRNA and initiation codon of mRNA requires GTP hydrolysis and marks the beginning of protein synthesis.  

Elongation stage of protein synthesis requires movement of the ribosome along the mRNA which in turn is facilitated by GTP hydrolysis. As the ribosome moves along the mRNA, the codon of mRNA bind to the respective anticodon of aminoacyl tRNA by using the energy of GTP hydrolysis. The GTPase activity of elongation factor Ef-Tu ensures the fidelity of the process.  

The release factors that recognize the stop codon and serve to mark the termination of protein synthesis use the energy of GTP hydrolysis during the process.

A parent plant Reproduced asexually to form the daughter plant if the leaf cells of the parent plant have 24 chromosomes which t
sineoko [7]
Let us consider each statement separately. A zygote is the result of the fusion of two gametes (reproductive cells) and thus only appears in sexual reproduction. For the same reason, E) is wrong; meiosis is a step in the making of gametes and again, a plant that reproduces asexually does not produce gametes. B) is also wrong since (healthy) members of the same species have the same number of chromosomes. The leaf cells of the daughter plant will have 24 chromosomes. The only case where this would not hold, is the case of sexual reproduction, where the gametes of the new organism have half the chromosomes of the ancestor organisms. Hence, C and D are correct. We have already justified D. As far as C is concerned, in asexual reproduction we have that every organism passes his whole genome to his offspring and this creates a lot of clones next to each other. Every plant in a garden of a species that reproduces asexually may be genetically identical and some biologists consider them for that reason as the same organism!
