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

Biology
1 answer:
abruzzese [7]3 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.

Answer: Visualizing Transcription

Explanation:

DNA is double-stranded, but only one strand serves as a template for transcription at any given time. This template strand is called the noncoding strand. The nontemplate strand is referred to as the coding strand because its sequence will be the same as that of the new RNA molecule.

A new strain of rice was developed to be resistant to popular weed killers. What could be a negative outcome from the production
asambeis [7]
B. Because of Farm laws that require no seeds to be kept from a harvest, or you are not allowed to have plants of a different genetic make or made by a different company in your field if you didn't buy it, you could have wind carry seeds into opposing fields, and if inspected, you would potentially have to pay a fine for having unauthorized varieties growing in your field. And trying to remove it would be a pain, because you would either have to find a killer that your plants are resistant to, or to find these individually and pluck them, or to spray a killer that would kill all of your plants, but none of these resistant varieties

Individuals that cannot produce the H substance appear to be type O even if they have functional A and/or iB alleles.

Explanation:

The H antigen is a precursor to the ABO blood group antigens, present in people of all common blood types. The Bombay phenotype (hh) does not express antigen H on red blood cells.The person with  blood group O contain the H antigen but it remains unmodified remains unmodified.

Starting with the smallest level of ecological organization and moving toward the highest, the order should go organism, _______
dezoksy [38]

Answer: population, community, ecosystem and biosphere

Explanation:

In ecological organization, the smallest level is Organism level (a unit representative).

Population level comes next after the Organism level. Population refers to the total number of organisms of the same species inhabiting a geographical area.

Then, Community level comes next after population level. A refers to group of plants, animals and other living components functioning in their non-living environment.

Ecosystem level is the next after community level. An ecosystem refers to the aggregate of living organisms interacting with the non-living components in an environment.

Lastly, Biosphere is the highest level in ecological organization. Biosphere refers to the part of the earth where living organisms occupies.
