Answer:

The question is incomplete, it lacks the mRNA sequence. The sequence is as follows:

5′−AUGGCAAGAAAA−3′

The answer is Met-Ala-Arg-Lys

Explanation:

Gene expression in living organisms involves the process of transcription and translation. Transcription is the synthesis of a complementary strand of mRNA from a DNA template while translation involves using the transcibed mRNA as a template to synthesize amino acid sequence (proteins).

In the RIBOSOME, where the synthesis of protein occurs, the mRNA nuceleotide sequence is read in a group of three nucleotides called CODON. Each codon specifies a particular amino acid. The collection of all codons is the genetic code. Hence, for a specific mRNA sequence that reads 5′−AUGGCAAGAAAA−3′. The nucleotides will be read three at a time starting with AUG which is a codon that encodes METHIONINE.

Next, GCA is a codon that encodes ALANINE

Next, AGA is a codon that encodes ARGININE

Finally, AAA is a codon that encodes LYSINE.

Hence, the amino acid sequence using the above mRNA sequence, will read: Met-Ala-Arg-Lys

A potential negative health effect of stress is _______
Minchanka [31]

Correct option a) Increased plasma volume.

A potential negative health effect of stress is Shrinks the brain. Stress that's the left unchecked can contribute to many health problem, such as high blood pressure , heart disease , obesity and diabetes.

The volume of the brain tends to remain about the same, it has been found that chronic stress in healthy individuals can causes areas of the brain associated with emotions , metabolism and memory of that individual to be shrink slowly.

Stress can also be positive which is distress , getting job promotion or being given grater responsibilities keeping us alert and ready to avoid danger. It can became negative if a person faces continuous challenges without relief or relaxation between challenges.

Comparative embryology helped clarify the relationships among major groups of animals. Bilaterians, for example, are all: Quizle
charle [14.2K]

Bilaterians, for example, are all triploblastic.

<h3>Comparative embryology</h3>

Comparative embryology is a major branch of embryology that deals with comparison of the embryo of different species, thereby showing there relationships.

Triploblastic animals are those animals that have three embryonic germinal layers which include ectoderm, endoderm and mesoderm.

This type of cell is found in the blood and engulfs pathogens.
Mariana [72]

Answer: The correct answer is macrophages

Explanation:

Macrophages are examples of phagocytes, and they engulfs pathogens (disease-causing organisms such as viruses, bacteria) by pulling them into their vacuoles and digesting them completely.

Macrophages, and Other like T-cells, B lymphocytes and natural killer cells all help in the BODY DEFENCE. But unlike macrophage, others exert their function through a different mechanism.

Art [367]

www.chegg.com/homework-help/questions-and-answers                                     You recently discovered four new chemical mutagens (#1 - #4), but you do not know what type(s) of mutations these chemicals induce. You exposed E. coli to each chemical individually and observed mutant phenotypes. You then exposed this bacteria to a second known mutagen to observe if the mutations from chemicals #1 - #4 could be reversed. Your data is presented below. Mutations Induced by Mutations Reversed by Chemical EMS Acridine Orange 5-Bromouracil #1 No Yes No #2 Yes No Yes #3 Yes Yes Yes #4 No No No What type(s) of mutations are likely produced by chemical #3? A. transversions B. transitions C. frameshifts What type(s) of mutations are likely produced by chemical #4? A. transversions B. transitions C. frameshifts (SELECT ALL THAT APPLY)
