You are a new hire at a bioinformatics company and are helping to annotate the genome of a recently sequenced organism. A co-wor
ker indicates that the software used to detect potential genes finds protein-coding genes more easily than genes for noncoding RNAs. What difference between coding and noncoding genes explains why genes coding for proteins are easier to identify than genes for noncoding RNAs
A protein-coding gene has an open reading frame (ORF) that make easier its identification
Explanation:
During translation, the messenger RNA (mRNA) is read by the ribosomes as triplets of nucleotides called codons in the open reading frame (ORF). An ORF can be defined as a gene fragment composed of codons which are translated into amino acids in a polypeptide chain. According to the genetic code, the information encoded by these codons will specify the sequence of amino acids in the protein, as well as the start codon and stop codons of the protein-coding genes. A start codon (AUG) is a site at which translation into protein begins, while stop codons (UAA, UAG, and UGA) mark the site at which translation ends. Moreover, non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) don't have ORFs because they do not encode for proteins, and therefore their identification is more difficult.
Three-Quarters of all growth occurs during the third trimester.
Explanation:
D is the only option that has anything to do with the last trimester which is what the question was asking about. Furthermore, because so much growth is occurring during this time the cow will need more food to support this growth. So, D is the best option.
For example, On earth you weigh 75kg but on Jupiter you weigh 275kg (not accurate). Your weight has varied. However your mass is the same on both planets.
