Answer: The correct answer is DNA ( deoxyribonucleic acid).

DNA is the genetic material of the living organism. It carries the genetic information in the form of nucleotide sequences. DNA is converted into mRNA ( messenger RNA through transcription), which is then converted into protein through a process called translation.

Thus, the blueprint for a protein is originally carried by DNA.

DNA (Deoxyribose nucleic acid) is a <u>blueprint or the molecular sequence </u>that information regarding the synthesis of protein.

Further Explanation:

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is <u>a long chain of molecules</u> that carries the <u>genetic information</u> of an organism. It is a double helix or two stranded a molecule that has a twisted structure. These<u> two strands run antiparallel (opposite) to each other.</u> It is lies within the nucleus of each cell.

Each strand is composed of a nitrogenous base, namely; <u>adenine, guanine, thymine and cytosine.</u> These bases lie in a sequence. The <u>sequence present on the one strand of the DNA is complementary to others.</u> These strands are inaccessible due to its twisted structure. So, the first step for the synthesis of protein includes the untwisting of the DNA strand. An RNA polymerase grabs the molecule and split it into two strands. It leads to exposure of base-pair that helps in building the RNA strands. The<u> RNA is similar to DNA; the only difference is </u><u>uracil </u>(nitrogenous base) in place of thymine. It is complementary to the DNA strand. The RNA that contains information regarding the protein is called mRNA (messenger RNA).

A farmer wanted to rid his apple trees of a particular leaf-eating insect. he sprayed his trees with an insecticide that killed
marta [7]
The survival of the 2 percent of the population is due to the presence of a gene obtained from other species. This gene must be responsible for developing resistance in the insects, against the insecticide that was used by the farmer. The gene got incorporated in only 2% of the insects and therefore, they survived and rest of them were susceptible to the insecticide and thus, died.

Which of the following is true? a. Extracellular matrix is a recent discovery. b. Extracellular matrix was discovered nearly 5 y
USPshnik [31]

Answer: d. Extracellular matrix was discovered more than 20 years ago.

Explanation:

According to biological sciences, the extracellular matrix is a matrix that consists of three dimensional network of extracellular macromolecules such as enzymes, collagen and glycoproteins which provide structural and biological support for surrounding cells as well.

It is found that it is discovered over 20 years ago in the matrix formed in the mouse EHS sarcoma. Therefore, correct answer is (d).

How is this information carried within the DNA
serious [3.7K]
<h2>Answer: Genetic information is carried in the linear sequence of nucleotides in DNA. Each molecule of DNA is a double helix formed from two complementary strands of nucleotides held together by hydrogen bonds between G-C and A-T base pairs.</h2>

Explanation:

<h2>The information carried by a DNA molecule is in Genetic information resides in the order of the nucleotides on a DNA molecule. ... They hypothesized that there must be a code that linked the nucleotide sequence in a gene to the amino acid sequence in a protein. Each nucleotide code is called a codon.</h2>

What function group within a cell functions in energy processing
AveGali [126]
What do mitochondria do? Where are they found?

They harvest chemical energy from food & carry out cellular respiration, the conversion glucose to ATP. They are found in cells of eukaryotes, except a few anaerobic protozoans. The ATP generating electron transport system is embedded in the inner membrane (cristae) and chemical reactions occur in compartments between membranes.

What are the functional categories of organelles?

Eukaryotic organelles comprise four functional categories: -manufacture (synthesis of macromolecules and transport within the cell), -breakdown (elimination and recycling of cellular materials - energy processing (conversion of energy from one form to another) -support, movement, and communication (maintenance of cell shape, anchorage, and movement of organelles, and relationships with extracellular environments) All four categories work together as an integrated team, producing the emergent properties at the cellular level.

So in smaller terms, I guess eukaryotic organelles do this.
