Verizon [17]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct answer is rRNA plays an important role during translation (protein synthesis) of mRNA.

Explanation:

Ribosomal RNA or rRNA are the RNA molecules which build up the site for protein synthesis known as ribosomes.

Ribosome synthesis takes place in nucleolus where two types of rRNA molecules associates with proteins, one in large subunit and one in the small subunit to form ribosomes.

These ribosomes physically moves along an mRNA molecule and catalyze the assembly of amino acids where rRNA molecules performs the catalytic steps of protein synthesis that is stitches amino acids together and makes up proteins.

Thus,  rRNA plays an important role during translation (protein synthesis) of mRNA.

Describe three physical characteristics of monerans?
PtichkaEL [24]
No Nucleus

All members of the kingdom Monera have no nuclei in their cells. All genetic material in moneran cells floats loose in the cytoplasm. In fact, the only parts of the cell that exist in a moneran are the cell wall and the ribosomes. Moneran cell walls are made of peptidoglycan. This is the case for all monerans except for archaebacteria. Monerans also move about using flagella.

Digestion

Monerans digest their food outside of the cell and then absorb the nutrients. Different monerans, however, digest their food in a variety of ways. Some simply generate their own food by making their organic compounds. Others need to feed off of other organic matter, such as decaying material. Some monerans are parasites that feed off of a host and others create a symbiotic relationship with another organism. According to Thinkquest.com, monerans are separated into different classifications by how they feed.

Other Characteristics

Monerans reproduce by both sexual conjugation or asexual binary fission. Circulation is done by diffusion, which is similar to the way they digest. Monerans all breathe differently. Some cannot survive without oxygen while some die if exposed to oxygen. Monerans come in three different shapes: spiral, rod-shaped or spherical. In order to protect themselves, most Monerans are surrounded by a capsule of polysaccharides that keeps them from drying out and acts as protection against other harmful cells.

Match the functional groups with their structures:
evablogger [386]
The true answer of your question is :

OH : HYDROXYL GROUP

NH2 : AMINO GROUP

CH3 : METHYL GROUP ( but in rather broader terms, that functional group of formula CnH2n+1 where n is an integer is called ALKYL GROUP where by substituting n by 1,2,3... we obtain methyl for n = 1, ethyl for n = 2, and propyl for n = 3 )

COOH : CARBOXYL GROUP is the correct answer since carbonyl is characterized by the presence of functional group C=O in general the formula of the compound would be
R-C=O-R’ where R and R’ are alkyl groups like methyl for example. However the carboxyl group could be thought of as a summation of carbonyl + hydroxyl ( CO + OH ) resulting thus in COOH.

I hope you’ll understand everything, anyway if not i’m always here to help. ♥️

Answer:

little pouches

Explanation:

the aleveoli are like small balloons, but not large ones. they exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide molecules (so they contain small amounts of air like a SMALL balloon, or in this situation a small pouch).
