What role does DNA play in the production of a protein?

Chemistry
1 answer:
klemol [59]3 years ago
5 0

A

Explanation:

The coiling up of DNA with the help of histone proteins - to what is called heterochromatic regions-  is part of gene regulation. This makes genes inaccessible to RNA polymerase that makes mRNA from the genes. When the genes are exposed by DNA unwinding, these genes are transcribed and the resulting mRNAs are translated by ribosomes into proteins.

The DNA never unwinds completely, but rather does so region by region, because if it does so it would become so long that it wouldn't fit in the nucleus or cell.

What is the concentration of magnesium bromide, in ppm, if 133.4 g MgBr2 dissolved in 1.84 L water. Then solve for the bromine c
Serhud [2]

Answer: 0.0725ppm

Explanation:

133.4g of MgBr2 dissolves in 1.84L of water.

Therefore Xg of MgBr2 will dissolve in 1L of water. i.e

Xg of MgBr2 = 133.4/1.84 = 72.5g

The concentration of MgBr2 is 72.5g/L = 0.0725mg/L

Recall,

1mg/L = 1ppm

Therefore, 0.0725mg/L = 0.0725ppm

Why is the expectation value of the energy associated with the 1-D "particle-in-a-box" the same as the eigen value of the Hamilt
Veronika [31]

Answer: The average potential energy of the PIB is 0 irrespective of the wave function.

Explanation:

⟨H⟩=⟨KE⟩+⟨V⟩

the nn quantum number

⟨KE⟩=(π^2 ℏ^2)/(2mL^2 )

the average kinetic energy of the wavefunction is dependent on

⟨V⟩=∫sin(kx)0sin(kx)dx=0

The average potential energy of the PIB is 0 irrespective of the wave function.

⟨H⟩=⟨KE⟩=(π^2 ℏ^2)/(2mL^2 )

Which of the following chemical formulas show three molecules of a compound that has one
mr_godi [17]

The chemical formula : 3HgBr₂(Mercury(II) bromide)

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

The chemical formulas of Mercury and Bromine

Required

The appropriate chemical formula

Solution

A molecular formula is a formula that shows the number of atomic elements that make up a compound.  

The number of molecules is determined by the coefficient in front of the compound

the number of atoms is determined by the subscript after the atom and the coefficient

Three molecules⇒ coefficient = 3

one atom of Mercury ⇒Hg

two atoms of Bromine ⇒ Br₂

The chemical formula : 3HgBr₂
