Pepsi [2]3 years ago

Answer:

Transcription is the 1st step in the gene expression (DNA based) by which the information in a sequence of DNA is copied into a molecule of mRNA (messenger RNA). Transcription involves 3 steps:

  • Initiation: In which the DNA molecule sequence unwind and form a small open complex.
  • Elongation: In which RNA polymerase moves with the template strand & synthesizing a messenger RNA.
  • Termination: Occurs when an RNA polymerase crosses a termination sequence in the gene. In the termination step, the mRNA strand is complete & it detaches from DNA.  

RNA polymerase is a multi sub-unite enzyme which is responsible for copying the DNA template into an RNA template during the process of transcription.

Create an explicit equation for each recursively-defined sequence below.
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

  t(n) = 3·5^(n-1)

Explanation:

The recursive formula describes a sequence in which each term is 5 times the one before it. This is a geometric sequence with common ratio 5 and a first term that is said to be 3.

As you know, the generic formula for a geometric sequence is ...

  an = a1·r^(n-1)

For a1 = 3, r = 5, and a sequence named "t", this is ...

  t(n) = 3·5^(n-1)
