Answer:

Plants : 1. The cell wall is made up of cellulose.

2. They have vascular tissues.

3. They are autotrophic.

Fungi: 1. They are hetrotrophic.

2. The cell wall is made up of chitin and glucans.

3. They lack chlorophyll.

Plants are autotrophic organisms which means they can prepare their own food by the process of photosynthesis. They have vascular tissues like xylem and phloem which allow them to transport water and food respectively all plant organs. The cell wall of plant is made up of cellulose, cell wall is the structural layer outside the cell membrane. Cellulose provides rigidity to the cell wall.

Fungi are hetrotrophic organisms which means they prepare their food by decaying plant and animals remains. The cell wall is made up of chitin and glucans which have function in providing stability to cell. They lack chlorophyll because they do not produce food by photosynthesis.

Translation ends when

Y_Kistochka [10]

Translation

Remember that transcription happens in the nucleus as it changes from DNA to mRNA. In translation,
the mRNA first has to leave the nucleus and go into the cytoplasm of the cell. The process of translation actually occurs in the cell’s ribosomes.

The process of translation uses the genetic code on the mRNA strand to direct the construction (making) of a protein molecule. 
1. A ribosome attaches to an mRNA molecule in the cytoplasm.
2. As each codon passes through the ribosome, tRNA molecules bring the matching amino acids into the ribosome. Each tRNA has a set of 3 unpaired nitrogenous bases called an anticodon which matches up with the codon coming through the ribosome. So one end of a tRNA has an anticodon and the other end carries the amino acid which is how the code is translated.
3. The ribosome and the rRNA molecules it contains attach the amino acids together as they are being translated. The protein chain will keep growing until the ribosome reaches the stop codon on the mRNA. At that point, translation is done and the ribosome lets go.

Hope this helps!!!

A mutation that causes production of a defective pilus in a bacterium will prevent __________.

daser333 [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is: Attachment.

Explanation:

Pilus are thread like structures which are present on the surface of the bacterial cell.
They are mainly responsible for attaching the bacterial cells to a substrate, for obtaining food or to an eukaryotic cell for the purpose of infection.
Pilus also mediate the process of conjugation in some bacterial cells.
Conjugation is a process by which genetic material or plasmids are transferred from one bacteria to another through a channel formed in between the two bacteria by the help of the pilus.
Pilus also helps the bacteria by preventing them from getting recognised by the immune cells in the host.
A defective pilus will affect all the above processes, resulting in death of the bacteria.
