What are the common promoter elements found in eukaryotic genes, and how are they different from enhancer elements?
V125BC [204]

Answer:

In eukaryotic cells you find core and proximal promoters.

Promotors are specific DNA sequences where transcription factors (proteins) and RNA polymerase binds to initiate transcription. Promotors are located upstream the coding sequence

Core promoters are where RNA polymersae binds and proximal promoters are where transcription factors bind.

Enhancer elements are DNA sequences where transcription factors (proteins) bind to increase the rate of expresion of an specific gene. Enhancers can be located either upstream,  downstream or thousands of nucleotids away  from the of the coding region.

Explanation:

Promoters and enhancer are key elements for controling gene regulation. Transcription begins when chromatin rearranges from a condensed state to a accesible state, this allow to transcrition factors and RNA polymerase to  bind specif DNA sequences (promotors).  Proteins bind to enhancers , this complex develops a DNA loop, so that the protein that is bound to the enhancer interacts with the RNA polymersase. When this interaction is made, the activity of the RNA polymerase is increased.

In translation, the cell uses the genetic information contained in mRNA to make the proteins that carry out the cell's work.
Jobisdone [24]

Answer: d). UAG

Explanation: During translation, DNA sequence is first of all copied into an mRNA in a process known as transcription. This is the first step in protein synthesis. The mRNA is used as a template in protein synthesis. The genetic information encoded in an mRNA are in form of codons. A Codon is a three nucleotide sequence that codes for a specific amino acid. These codons are recognized by anticodons in a tRNA molecule. An anticodon is a three-base sequence on the tRNA through which tRNA base pair with mRNA.

From the DNA sequence above, 3'TAG will first be transcribed into an mRNA sequence AUC, then the anticodon on the tRNA will be UAG. The mRNA codon-tRNA anticodon base pairing follows the Watson and Crick base pairing in which Adenine pairs with Uracil and Cytosine pairs with Guanine.

Some people must avoid foods high in msg, as oversupply of the neurotransmitter _____ can over stimulate the brain, inducing sei
choli [55]

The right answer is glutamate

Glutamate is a major excitatory neurotransmitter associated with learning and memory.

It is also associated with Alzheimer's disease whose first symptoms are felt in memory.

Most people unknowingly consume monosodium glutamate (MSG), a commonly used food additive.

An experiment was done on healthy patients, giving them 12 grams of glutamate. It was found that the experience led to headaches, nausea or jaw pain in 50-60% of cases.

It was also measured the level of glutamate contained in the muscles of patients with jaw problems. The tests concluded that the most painful muscles were those containing the highest levels of glutamate.

According to him, one of the keys to chronic pain could lie in the development of drugs that reduce the rate of glutamate.

The place where an impulse is tansmitted from a motor neuron to a skeletal muscle is called
zmey [24]

Answer:

Another specialization of the skeletal muscle is the site where a motor neuron's terminal meets the muscle fiber—called the neuromuscular junction (NMJ). This is where the muscle fiber first responds to signaling by the motor neuron.

D. Neuromuscular Junction
