DNA polymerase has multiple mechanisms for editing and error correction, whereas the capacity for error correction in RNA polyme

rases seems to be quite limited. However, like a DNA mutation, an RNA polymerase error in transcription can cause production of a mutated protein. The limited error correction of RNA polymerase seems to be inconsistent with the potentially serious consequence of producing a protein with an altered amino acid sequence.A) Defective proteins are often degraded quickly, making their effects temporary. B) Single amino acid substitutions caused by errors in mRNA transcription would not affect protein function. C) Unlike DNA mutations, mRNA transcripts have short half-lives and are not inherited across many generations.D) Degradation of defective proteins activates mRNA repair pathways E) RNA polymerases synthesize many transcripts per gene, so only a small fraction of RNA transcripts would have errors. F) ch mRNA molecule is only translated once and then degraded.

Answer: D) Degradation of defective proteins activates mRNA repair pathways

Explanation:

A recent publication (J Phys Condens Matter. 2013. 18;25(37):374104.) provided the information on this matter. According to researcher RNA polymerase have ability to backtrack and translocate the error on both RNA transcript and DNA template. By doing so RNA polymerase cleave the defective part on RNA transcriptome by the process called proofreading. While proofreading contribute in accuracy of transcription but on contrary it also slower the process of transcription.

Organic sediment on lake bottoms and the ocean floor is broken down by microbes into inorganic forms of phosphorous in a process
murzikaleks [220]

Answer: Mineralization

Explanation: Phosphorous cycle moves through the rocks, water, soil, sediments and organisms.

The weathering of rock releases phosphate ions and other minerals. Plants take up the phosphate from the soil. Phosphorous is present in the form of organic phosphate which is broken down by the help of microorganism in the form of inorganic phosphate.

This process is known as mineralization.

A biologist observes that a species of stick insects on a remote island has three different color traits, almost equally distrib
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Since the dark green phenotype allows the insects' to blend in with their surroundings, there will be generally more of the same dark green phenotype on the remote island. Since they are blending in with their surroundings, they survive easier, and they are able to stay alive long enough to reproduce. Let me know if this helped!
