Longitude is used to measure distances in degrees from the Prime Meridian. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the second option. The main purpose of longitude is to determine the east and west position of a point based on its geographical coordinate. I hope the answer helps you.

Which component is the last to join the initiation complex during the initiation of translation?

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

The correct answer is the third option- the large ribosomal unit.

Explanation:

The translation is the second process of the protein synthesis in which transcribed mRNA molecule and transfer RNA or tRNA and ribosomes assemble together and complete synthesis of peptide chain or protein.

The assembly of initiator tRNA to ribosome subunits at the start codon of the mRNA is the initiation complex of the translation. The initiator tRNA is basically a met-tRNA molecule.

The initiator tRNA is bound to small subunit (30S) at 5' cap and scan for the start codon of mRNA.

Start codon bind to initiator RNA and in the end larger ribosomal unit assemble to this complex to complete the initiation complex of translation.

Thus, the correct answer is option - the large ribosomal subunit

Algebra I

Coordinates (x, y)
Slope Formula: $\displaystyle m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

Point (0, -7)

Point (7, 0)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m

Substitute in points [Slope Formula]: $\displaystyle m=\frac{0+7}{7-0}$
[Fraction] Add/Subtract: $\displaystyle m=\frac{7}{7}$
[Fraction] Divide: $\displaystyle m=1$

Explain how each pair differ in meaning. Exponential growth, logistic growth

wel

Exponential growth = individuals are not limited by food or disease; the population will continue to grow exponentially; Logistic growth = the population begins to grow exponentially before reaching a carrying capacity and leveling off.

How would the contractile vacuole of a freshwater amoeba respond if the organism was placed in seawater

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer: Contractile vacuole of amoeba will shrink/contract when the organism is placed in sea water.

Contractile vacuole is a subcellular structure ( mainly found in protists) that is involved in the regulation of water quantity inside a cell.

As we know that water always flow from a hypotonic ( where solute concentration is less) to a hypertonic ( where solute concentration is more) solution. Sea water is a hypertonic solution as the concentration of salt is very high. Therefore, in this case, water will flow from contractile vacuole to outside of the organism.

Thus, contractile vacuole of amoeba will contract as it will lose water when placed in sea water.
