Answer:

No 15N/15N labeled DNA was observed in second generation

Explanation:

Meselson and Stahl were doing an experiment to find out the semi-conservative mode of replication of DNA. The first cultured bacteria in 15N medium which was containing a heavy isotope of nitrogen. The DNA synthesized here had more density. After that they transferred the bacteria to the 14N containing medium. When bacteria reproduced and new strands of DNA were synthesized, they observed the following -

  • The first generation had hybrid DNA with 15N/14N strands
  • The second generation had both hybrid 15N/14N DNA and 14N/14N DNA strands
  • There was no 15N/15N DNA observed.

In this way they proved that one strand of DNA is kept conserved during the replication.

Answer:

<h2>The first generation has DNA with  15N/14N strands,  </h2><h2>Second generation has  both type of DNA, one contain 15N/14N  strands and other with14N/14N strands. </h2>

Explanation:

In DNA replication, the newly formed dsDNA  contains one parental type  strand  and the other newly formed strand, which is formed during replication.

The mode of DNA replication is semi-conservative in which one strand is parental and other is new.

As given, E.coli contain 15N/15N labeled DNA and it was grown in 14N media.

So, here during DNA replication, the first generation has hybrid 15N/14N DNA, one strand( 15N) is parental and other (14N) in newly formed,  and the second generation has both hybrid 15N/14N DNA and 14N/14N DNA. There is no DNA containing 15N/15N strands was observed.

Why is dna smaller than rna?
Elis [28]
No it’s the other way around .

RNA is much shorter than DNA. DNA contains the code for making lots and lots of different proteins. Messenger RNA contains the information to make just one single polypeptide chain - in other words for just one protein, or even just a part of a protein if it is made up of more than one polypeptide chain.

In which ways can the individual steps of this process be regulated to lead to higher or lower expression of a particular protei
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

There are many points at which eukaryotic gene expression can be controlled, through pretranscriptional control, transcriptional control, and posttranscriptional control

Explanation:

The pretranscriptional control determines the accessibility of chromatin to the transcription machinery. It is affected by supercoiling and methylation. It is also known as epigenetic regulation, and it does not depend on the sequence but on the conformation of the DNA.

While transcriptional control determines the frequency and / or speed of transcription initiation through the accessibility of the start sites, the availability of transcription factors and the effectiveness of promoters.

The post-transcriptional control is the one that is exercised once the transcript has finished synthesizing. It can be of several types:

• Maturation control: As the RNA adjustment can be made.

• Transport control: Most RNA has to go out to the cytoplasm to perform its function. For this they have to cross the pores of the nuclear membrane, where you can select the RNAs that will be transported and those that will not.

• Stability control: The half-life of RNA can be regulated by the expression of RNAs or mRNA stabilizing proteins in the cytoplasm.

• Translational control: It is exercised on the frequency with which the mRNAs begin to be translated. It can also affect the frequency with which proteins mature and the availability of enzymatic effectors.

Normally, what is the relationship of the amount of sodium excreted to the amount ingested that day?​
kvv77 [185]
The correct answer is "intake and excretion are equal." Normally, there should be equilibrium between the intake of sodium and the excreted sodium. There are regulatory mechanisms in the body that regulate the excretion of sodium in order to match it with the intake. This is to prevent hyponatremia and hypernatremia.
