Why are ribonucleoside triphosphates the monomers required for rna synthesis rather than ribonucleoside monophosphates?

Biology

torisob [31]3 years ago

Answer:

The phosphates provide energy for the bond between each nucleotide.

Explanation:

When each nucleotide is being bound, the two extra phosphates provide the energy needed for it to form the bind between each nucleotide that's being added to the RNA. Without this energy, the RNA wouldn't be able to form due to the lack of enough energy.

One important difference between a mylinated and bare axon is _____.
JulijaS [17]
A myelinated axon has a sheath around it and a bore axon doesn't have it, it's open or exposed so to speak. T<span>he myelin is made up of fat and protein and works like insulation. these axons make up the white matter in the brain since it appears white. The sheath helps to keep the electrical current from leaving the axon and the myelin sheath provides a tract along which regrowth can occur. </span>

An easy way to calculate the amount of energy available at each level is to
Contact [7]

Answer:

Use the rule that 10% of the energy is transferred between layers.

Explanation:

Energy is transferred between layers of a food pyramid. That means that the  producers at the bottom of the pyramid (e.g. green plants) provide energy to the primary consumers (e.g. rabbits), which are eaten by and provide energy to the secondary consumers (e.g. foxes).

However, very little of the energy is actually transferred to the next layer, roughly 10%. So an easy way to calculate the energy available at each level is to calculate 10% of what was available from the previous level. So if there is 600 kJ available from the primary consumers, then 60 kJ are transferred to the secondary consumers

Refer the the graph below showing the absorption spectrum of chlorophyll a. Explain what the graph is showing
Stella [2.4K]

Answer: The graph shows that chlorophyll a absorbs light principally around 420-450 nm and 650-680nm wavelengths

Explanation: Chlorophyll a is a pigment found in plants that traps light energy for use in photosynthesis. Chlorophyll a absorbs light mostly in the blue and orange-red wavelengths. This is shown in the graph, where the peaks are around the 400nm and 600nm wavelengths, corresponding to blue and red in visible light.

This absorption means the pigment is 'excited' by this light, sending into a higher state if energy which provides energy for the reactions of photosynthesis.
