How does active transport help the Atlantic cod maintain homeostasis with regard to the balance of sodium and chlorine ions

kotegsom [21]

Atlantic Cod is a marine fish. The fish has less salt in its internal body while the salt concentration in the sea water in which the Cod lives is high. Thus through the process of osmosis ( a process in which an element moves across a permeable membrane from regions of high concentration to the regions of low concentration) the salt moves from the ocean into the fish body. In such scenario the metabolism of the fish body gets disturbed, and there is an urgent need to remove the excess salt with the help of Kidney (through extremely concentrated urine) by going against the concentration gradient in order to maintain the homeostasis.

What is a galaxy? Describe three different shapes that a galaxy may have. List the common components of a galaxy.

Eva8 [605]

A galaxy is a gravitationally bound system of stars, stellar remnants, interstellar gas, dust, and dark matter. The word galaxy is derived from the Greek galaxias, literally "milky", a reference to the Milky Way.

Elliptical: These have a faint, rounded shape, but they're devoid of gas and dust, with no visible bright stars or spiral patterns. ...
Spiral: The Milky Way is one of the larger spiral galaxies. ...
Irregular: These are small, faint galaxies with large clouds of gas and dust, but no spiral arms or bright centers.

Can you guys help me out with some honors bio questions I have? I will give brainliest thanks in advance!!

Answer:

1. When using a codon chart, the mRNA sequence (option B) is used to determine the amino acid .

2. The amino acid that is represented by the UUA codon is leucine (Option A).

Explanation:

Messenger RNA (mRNA) is the molecule that contains the genetic code that must be translated by the ribosome for protein synthesis to be possible.

The nitrogenous bases in mRNA are adenine, guanine, uracil and cytosine, which form specific sequences in the molecule. The sequence of bases in the MRA can be organized into triplets of bases, called codons, which code for:

Initiation of protein synthesis.
Number and position of amino acids in the protein.
The stop of protein synthesis.

From this information it can be stated that the mRNA contains the sequence used to synthesize amino acids and UUA codon codes for the amino acid leucine (Leu).

The other options are not correct because:

1. A) DNA contains the genetic information, and its molecule must be transcribed into mRNA to be translated into amino acids.

C) tRNA is in charge of conducting the amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis, matching its anticodon to the mRNA codon.

2. UUA does not code for:

B) Serine, which is coded by UCU, UCA, UCG and UCC.

C) STOP. The three STOP codons are UAA, UAG and UGA.
