Small interfering RNA, also known as RNAi, is single-stranded RNA that binds to mRNA with a RNA-induced silencing complex protei

n. According to the model, what is the most likely effect of RNAi on the expression of the mRNA?

Answer:

The expression of the mRNA decreases.

Explanation:

The RNAi binds to some proteins forming a silencing complex. This complex binds to the target mRNA (of which the RNAi is complementary) and cleaves it (cuts it). The cell will detect the generated fragments of mRNA , recognize they are aberrant and will thus degrade them.

All in all, this mechanism silences (reduces) the expression of the mRNA, because it will be degraded instead of translated into protein.

Alika [10]

Answer:

Which data help hydrologists predict floods?

Impermeable land area

Snowpack

Explanation:

Impermeable land area , Snowpack

The above factors are very essential to an hydrologist to predict floods though other factors such as topography, drainage among others are also inclusive to make the prediction rightly.

Biomolecules are made from simple monomers, yet you find a very high level of diversity. What chemical features make diversity i
Luden [163]

Chemical features like 3 dimensional structure and chemical bonding are responsible for diversity in biomolecules although they are made from simple monomers.

In the case of carbohydrates, both starch and glycogen are made up of glucose monomers yet they differ in the functions which they perform in our body. This difference is because of the chemical bonding and the 3 dimensional structure.

Similarly in protein biomolecules, amino acids act as the monomers but they differ in function due to their 3 dimensional structure. Nucleotides are the building blocks of both RNA and DNA. RNA and DNA perform different functions in the body. DNA stores ad transfers genetic information while RNA is responsible for directly coding for amino acids.

Describing Comparative Investi
kogti [31]

Answer:

Limitation of comparative investigation is that when it is done on a huge population, huge amount cost is required. Explanation: Benefit of comparative investigation is that we can get descrete information about specific breed or species. It is important for the study of behaviour of many organisms.
