During mitosis, the chromatin in the nucleus of a cell condenses and becomes visible under a microscope. The membrane around the nucleus breaks down.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Elastic fibers are composed of elastin, myofibrils and fibrillin. They are distributed <u>separately</u>, and therefore do not form bundles(they actually form a kind of mesh), like collagen fibers.
Elastic fibers are usually thin and long and can stretch up to 1.5x of their total length.
These fibers confer elasticity to the connective tissue. The mesh formed of elastic fibers easily yields to minimal tensions, returning to its original shape as soon as the deforming forces cease.
An example of the action of elastic fibers is when we pull the skin from our hands and release it, the elastic fibers are responsible for quickly returning the skin to its original shape.
<span>The internal structue and phylogenetic relationships were not considered in early taxonomic classifications. Early classifications were mostly based on morphological characters like height, shape, color etc. The organisms have evolutionary relationships which were also not considered in earlier classifications.</span>
Answer:
The mRNA strands go to the cytoplasm to meet ribosomes so protein synthesis can start.
Explanation:
In protein synthesis, the first step is to <em>synthesize messenger RNA</em>, mRNA. The coping process of the DNA section for the desired protein is called <u><em>transcription</em></u>, and it happens in the <em>nucleus</em>. After that, it occurs <em><u>translation</u></em>, when the formed <em>mRNA moves to the </em><em>cytoplasm</em> through the nucleus membrane pores. Protein synthesis is initiated in the cytoplasm when mRNA meets a free ribosome, the primary structure for protein synthesis. Ribosomes are made of <em>protein and ribosomal RNA</em> and can be found in the r<em>ough endoplasmic reticulum</em> or floating in the <em>cytosol</em>. They read the mRNA code and add the correct amino acid using <em>transference RNA</em> to build the protein. mARN has a <em>start and end codon</em> that tells where to start and stop adding amino acids. When the ribosome reaches the end codon, it means that protein synthesis is finished. The new protein is driven to the rough endoplasmic reticulum and translocated to the lumen. Once there, the protein suffers a few modifications, one of them is <em>folding</em> to become functional. Finally, protein is transported by vesicles to the Golgi complex, and from there to its final destiny.
