Answer:

C) Three hydrogen bonds will form with guanine.

Explanation:

Generally the DNA molecule is made up of Purines  bases of Adenine and Guanine,and Pyrimidine of Cytosine and Guanine.However,RNA contains a different pyrimidine of Uracil.Thus the pairing is A-U  am C-G.The uracil replaces Thymine.

The structure above is a Pyrimidine,because it is made up of single ring structure(an heterocylclic  aromatic  structure) compare to double structure of purines. Heterocyclic means it is ring form.Aromatic means it has resonance bonds which shift with the rings for stability.

It is also contains of two substitutes at position 4 of the ring structure (amineNH2) and at 2 which is the Keto group(=0).Therefore the structure is Cytosine.

In RNA structure the Cytosine pair with the three hydrogen bonds with guanine,while Adenine pair with Uracil.This ensures stability of the RNA structure.

The type of contraction in which the muscle fibers do not shorten is called
Korolek [52]

Answer:

Isometric contraction

Explanation:

The length of the muscle is changed during contraction only when the muscle tension during contraction can outstand the resistance exerted by the object to be lifted.  

During isometric contractions, the muscle tension is not sufficient to exceed the resistance of the object. Hence, there is no change in the length of the muscle. The isometric contraction does not bring about any body movements.

Translation ends when
Y_Kistochka [10]

<span>Translation

</span>Remember that transcription happens in the nucleus as it changes from DNA to mRNA.  In translation,
    the mRNA first has to leave the nucleus and go into the cytoplasm of the cell.  The process of translation actually occurs in the cell’s ribosomes.

<span>
</span>The process of translation uses the genetic code on the mRNA strand to direct the construction (making) of a protein molecule. <span>
</span>1.  A ribosome attaches to an mRNA molecule in the cytoplasm.<span>
</span>2.  As each codon passes through the ribosome, tRNA molecules bring the matching amino acids into the ribosome.  Each tRNA has a set of 3 unpaired nitrogenous bases called an anticodon which matches up with the codon coming through the ribosome.  So one end of a tRNA has an anticodon and the other end carries the amino acid which is how the code is translated.<span>
</span>3.  The ribosome and the rRNA molecules it contains attach the amino acids together as they are being translated.  The protein chain will keep growing until the ribosome reaches the stop codon on the mRNA.  At that point, translation is done and the ribosome lets go.

What did the Hershey and chase experiment show about bacteriophages?
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is A  bacteriophages inject only DNA into the bacteria.

Explanation:

Bacteriophages are a specific type of virus that infect bacteria.During the course of infection bacteriophage releases an enzyme known as lysozyme which creates a hole in the cell wall of the bacteria.

   After doing that(creating a hole) bacteriophage inject its DNA inside the bacterium.

   The injected DNA undergo gene expression by utilizing the gene expression machinery of bacteria which ultimately result in the formation of coat protein.The DNA is then packed within the coat protein to form progeny phages.The progeny phages then disrupt the cell wall and get released from the bacterium in search of a new host.
