These include the paired ovaries, paired uterine tubes, uterus (uterine horns), cervix, vagina, and the mammary glands. The ovaries are both an exocrine organ producing cells, i.e., ova, and an endocrine organ, secreting hormones, i.e., estrogen and progesterone.
Answer:
Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (About this soundpronunciation (help·info)), or glycophosphatidylinositol, or GPI in short, is a phosphoglyceride that can be attached to the C-terminus of a protein during posttranslational modification.
Answer:
Oral glucose products are available as gels, tablets, and oral solutions and may come in different flavors, and are primarily used to raise blood glucose in hypoglycemic patients (diabetic patients).
Answer:
4) The mRNA was shorter because of Intron splicing
Explanation:
In eukaryotic cells, the process of gene transcription uses a fragment of DNA as template in order to synthesize a complementary single-stranded RNA molecule known as primary messenger RNA transcript or 'pre-mRNA', which is then processed to yield a mature messenger RNA (mRNA). This mature mRNA is finally used as template to synthesize a polypeptide chain (i.e., a protein) by the process of translation. RNA splicing refers to the processing mechanism by which a pre-mRNA is transformed into a mature mRNA. During RNA splicing, non-coding regions of the pre-mRNA called 'introns' are removed, whereas the remaining coding regions called 'exons' are joined toghether to form a mature mRNA. In consequence, RNA splicing generates an mRNA that is shorter than the originally transcribed gene sequence.
