5. The transcribed portion of a gene spans about 250,000 base pairs of DNA. The protein made from this gene, with 1,480 amino ac

ids, is translated from an mRNA of about 6,500 bases. a. Why is the coding sequence of this gene so much larger than the mRNA from which the protein is translated?

Answer:

The nature of genes made them be divided into exons, introns and different regulatory sequences

Explanation:

The amount of genetic information that is under a gene structure have different roles in order to be correctly read. When a mRNA is produced from a certain gene, some regions from the complete structure of a gene might not be transcribed into a mRNA, and therefore won't be expressed into a protein. One of the main reasons of the smaller size in number of base pairs is because some of those lost regions on the DNA structure are responsible to be regulatory sequences and so, those sequences are not related with the final structure the mRNA and subsequently the protein structure. Some of those regulatory regions are related with the speed of transcription, for instance.

How does the property of water pictured below help a plant to thrive?
gayaneshka [121]

The adhesion and cohesion property of the water helps a plant to thrive.

Explanation:

The adhesion and cohesion property of the water is the two most important properties of water that regulate how water will work at different places of a plant. When water gets attracted to water then we can call it cohesion.

When water gets attracted to other substances then we can call it adhesion. In different part of the plants like roots, stem and leaves water reaches there by capillary action and works differently based on adhesion and cohesion property
