Answer:

Messenger RNA: Encodes amino acid sequence of a polypeptide. tRNA - Transfer RNA: Brings amino acids to ribosomes during translation. rRNA - Ribosomal RNA: With ribosomal proteins, makes up the ribosomes, the organelles that translate the mRNA.

Answer:

The three types of RNA are: messenger RNA, carrier RNA and ribosomal RNA.

Explanation:

Messenger RNA (mRNA): it is the type of RNA that presents itself in a smaller amount in a cell, constituting about 5% to 10% of all cellular RNA. It is translated into the protein synthesis process, and is therefore the one that encodes proteins. It has sequences of nitrogenous bases that determine which amino acids will be used to form a given protein. It is a very heterogeneous class of RNA.

Transporter RNA (tRNA): This RNA is responsible for making the codon and amino acid link. In summary, we can say that tRNA works as an adapter between mRNA and the amino acids that will constitute a protein. The tRNA is small and has a structure similar to that of a clover leaf that has four arms. Two of these arms are of great importance for this RNA to perform its functions: the amino acid arm and the anticodon arm. The amino acid arm binds to a specific amino acid, and the anticodon arm has a complementary sequence to the mRNA codon. The other two arms are important for maintaining the structure of this RNA molecule.

Ribosomal or ribosomal RNA (rRNA): composes the structure of the ribosome, an organelle that is the site of protein synthesis. Each ribosome is made up of two subunits and each of these subunits is made up of about three rRNA molecules and several associated proteins. It is estimated that this type of RNA represents approximately 80% of the total RNA in a cell.

When translating secretory or membrane proteins, ribosomes are directed to the ERmembrane byA) a specific characteristic of the
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

B) a signal-recognition particle that brings ribosomes to a receptor protein in the ER membrane.

Explanation:

Each synthesized protein has to be targeted to the specific location and transported to that location. There are two possible ways for that transport: post-translational transport or co-translational transport.

• Co-translational transport occurs during the process of translation, and proteins transported this way are proteins bound for organelles in the endomembrane system (such as the ER, Golgi apparatus, and lysosome), plasma membrane proteins or proteins for the exterior of the cell. They have an amino sequence called a signal peptide which sends them to ER first.

• Proteins that do not have a signal peptide stay in the cytosol so, their transport is after the translation (post-translational).

What is the difference between a true rib.a false rib and a floating rib
ivann1987 [24]

True rib : the first seven ribs attach to the sternum (the breast bone) in the front and are known as true ribs (or sternal ribs)

False ribs: the lower five ribs do not directly connect to the sternum and are known as false ribs  

Floating ribs :The floating ribs are less stable and risk breaking because they have only one attachment  

Dorsally to the vertebrae and have very thin bone tissue locked in muscle as they extend  

Laterally.

2. Dominant trait: cleft chin (C) Mother’s gametes: Cc
kakasveta [241]

Answer No 2:

      c      c

C   Cc     Cc

c    cc      cc

The genotype of the offsprings would be Cc, Cc, cc, cc i.e heterozygous cleft chin and no cleft chin. The phenotype of the offsprings could be 50% cleft chin and 50% without cleft chin.

there will be 50% chance of the child to have cleft chin.

Answer No 3:

        A        a

A     Aa       Aa

a      Aa        aa

There will be 25% chance for the offspring to have arched feet. As arched feet is a recessive trait, so for this trait to occur both the alleles of the gene should be recessive i.e aa.

Answer No 4:

    B      b

b   Bb    bb

b    Bb    bb

As blonde is a recessive trait, so both the alleles for this gene should be recessive for this trait to occur. Hence, according to the punnet square, there will be 50% chance for the offspring to be blonde.

Answer No 5:

           F      f

F          FF    Ff

f           Ff     ff

As normal vision is a resessive trait, hence both the alleles of the gene should be recessive for the trait to occur. According to the punnet square, there is 25% chance that the child will have normal vision.
