Question

Given that equal amounts of the different mRNA’s were injected into fertilized frog eggs, which of the following conclusions is most consistent with the electrophoresis results?
a. B-hemoglobin mRNA is translated more efficiently than is a-hemoglobin mRNA
b. a-hemoglobin is present only in cells where B-hemoglobin is absent
c. a-hemoglobin mRNA is more stable than B-hemoglobin mRNA
d. Tubulin inhibits translation of hemoglobin mRNA

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer is A. B-hemoglobin mRNA is translated more efficiently than is a-hemoglobin mRNA.

Explanation:

The introduction of electric charge into a gel or fluid, causing or resulting in the movement of the charged particles in the gel or fluid, is referred to as the electrophoresis. It can also be explained as a separation method or technique which is based on the movement of particles or ions in an electric field.

The electrophoresis is used in separating DNA fragments , RNA or protein, based on their size and charge.
