Answer:

RNA splicing is the intron removal and exon binding in the mRNA before leaving the nucleus.

Explanation:

Alternative splicing of identical RNA transcripts into different cell types can produce different mature mRNA molecules that translate into different polypeptides.

The genetic information encoded in the AND is transcribed to a copy of RNA (primary transcript). This copy is then modified with the addition of the 5 ’cap (CAP) and the poly-A tail, the excision of the introns and the union of the exons (splicing). The mature mRNA then goes to the cytoplasm, where it is translated into proteins.

Which refers to the movement of a piece of one chromosome to another nonhomologous chromosome?

Stels [109]

Answer:

Translocation

Explanation:

Translocation is a chromosomal abnormality (mutation) in which a chromosome breaks and a portion of it reattaches to a different chromosomal location. It can occur during the formation of sperms and eggs during meiosis.

Translocation is of two main types: 1. Reciprocal location, in which two fragments break off from two different (non-homologous) chromosomes and switch places.

2. Robertsonian translocation, in which an entire chromosome (usually acrocentric) becomes attached to another chromosome (acrocentric) at the centromere to form a metacentric chromosome.

Translocation can either be BALANCED, where no genetic information is missing or additional. Hence, there is an even exchange with no adverse effect on the affected individual or UNBALANCED, where the exchange of chromosomal material is unequal resulting in an extra or missing genes.

Ellen is jogging. As her body's metabolism becomes more active, how will her body protect itself initially against acidosis?

As her body's metabolism becomes more active, A. Ellens body will force her to slow down by cramping her muscles. A buildup of lactic acid will occur in Ellen's muscles, causing severe cramping.
