"When the genome of a particular species is said to include 20,000 protein-coding regions, what does this imply

Biology
1 answer:
vlada-n [284]3 years ago
5 0

The question is incomplete as it does not have the option which are:

A) There are 20,000 genes.

B) Each gene codes for one protein.

C) Any other regions are "junk" DNA.

D) There are also genes for RNAs other than mRNA.

E) The species is highly evolved.

Answer:

D) There are also genes for RNAs other than mRNA.

Explanation:

The protein-coding sequence refers to the sequence which can code for a protein and is therefore also known as the coding sequence.

The coding sequence codes for the protein by producing a messenger molecule which caries the message or codes for the protein called mRNA.

But the cell also requires other types of RNA like tRNA or rRNA which are sloe encoded on the genetic material.

In the given question, since the genome contains the 20,000 protein-coding region which codes for protein shows that it also contain the coded information not for only proteins but for molecules other than protein like RNAs.

Thus, the selected option is the correct answer.

What are the differences and similarity between action potential and graded potential?
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

Depending on the stimulus, graded potentials can be depolarizing or hyperpolarizing. Action potentials always lead to depolarization of membrane and reversal of the membrane potential. Amplitude is proportional to the strength of the stimulus. ... Duration of graded potentials may be a few milliseconds to seconds.

This control of the internal environment is called homeostasis, and can be observed through the ____________ range of the body's
Semenov [28]

Answer: "homeostatic (dynamic equilibrium) range"

Homeostasis can be observed through the "homeostatic range (pre-set limits)" of the body's pH, temperature and blood glucose.

Explanation:

Homeostasis is the control of internal environment , physical and chemical conditions maintained by the living systems. A body takes control of its internal environment in spite of external forces interruptions. It can be defined as the body's defensive mechanisms.

Homeostasis is maintained and controlled by the nervous system.

Homeostasis is for optimal functioning of the internal environment such as body pH, body temperature, fluid balance, chemical ions balance (calcium, sodium and potassium) and blood glucose.

Body temperature is normally about 37.5° C (98.6° F).

Salt concentration in body fluids is normally about 0.9%

Blood glucose is normally about 10 mg/ml.

A disturbed (imbalanced body as a result of external forces) body regains its haemostasis balance by

Activating reflexes that fight the disturbance and maintaining behaviours to counteract the disturbance.
