Which of the following statements about translational termination is correct?A. Accessory proteins called elongation factors rec

ognize the stop codon in the mRNA to terminate translation.
B. The ribosome keeps translating until it reaches the end of the mRNA and falls off the transcript.
C. Peptidyl transferase breaks the bond between the growing polypeptide chain and the tRNA in the P site, but there is no new charged tRNA in the A site, which results in the termination of translation and release of the polypeptide.
D. A special stop-tRNA enters the A site and terminates translation.
E. Rho proteins bind to the mRNA when the ribosome pauses and stops translation.

Answer:

C

Explanation:

<em>The correct answer here would be that the peptidyl transferase breaks the bond between the growing polypeptide chain and the tRNA in the P site, but there is no new charged tRNA in the A site, which results in the termination of translation and release of the polypeptide.</em>

The translation process stops when the stop codon in the mRNA being translated enters site A in the translation complex. When this happens, the release factor recognizes the stop codon and makes the enzymes that form peptide bonds to add water to the last amino acid on the chain.

The addition of water leads to the breaking of the peptide bond by peptidyl transferase, causing the separation of the polypeptide chain from the tRNA and the eventual release of the protein.

<u>Hence, the correct option would be C.</u>

The changing of the rivers created more ____________ for animals
Digiron [165]

Answer:

D) Habitats for animals.

Explanation:

It depends what the question means when it says 'the changing of the rivers'. I took it as the rivers are changing size and becoming more spread out. In that case, I chose habitats.

The more water there is, the more habitat there is for sea life.

All in all, the correct answer is D).

How do ETS reactions produce ATP?
Norma-Jean [14]

ATP synthesization -  Simple and complex lipids or carbohydrates are used to produce ATP through redox reactions. After the hydrolysis of complex carbohydrates, glucose and fructose are formed and the triglycerides are metabolized to form glycerol and fatty acids. ATP is then synthesized by oxidative phosphorylation and photophosphorylation during the energy production with in the living organisms. ATP production usually takes place in the mitochondria of the cell.  The important pathways by which ATP is generated are glycolysis, the citric acid cycle (or the Kreb’s cycle), and the electron transport chain (or the oxidative phosphorylation pathway).  In these three cycles of  cellular respiration  adenosine diphosphate (ADP) is converted  to ATP and energy is released  from molecules.

According to advocates for the use of genetic engineering, which is an example of the importance of recombinant DNA technology?
Anastasy [175]
Recombinant DNA or rDNA is the general term given to the process of taking a piece of a DNA and merging it with another strand of DNA. The combination of two or more different strands of DNA allows scientists to be able to produce a new and different strand of DNA. Combination of the DNAs of two different organisms is one of themost common recombinant process. The combination of these strands of DNA will give way to the creation of the cure of a lot of genetic diseases in the future like cell anemia, cystic fibrosis and the likes.
