Answer:

D. Start codon: AUG; stop codon: UAA; protein: Met-Ala-Leu-stop

Explanation:

  • Start codon is the first codon in mRNA which is translated to an amino acid. AUG is the most common start codon and corresponds to methionine in eukaryotes and modified methionine in bacteria.
  • Stop codon ends the translation process. There is no corresponding amino acid to it and the newly formed mRNA exits the translation machinery. There are three types of stop codons: UAA, UGA and UAG.
  • GCA codon codes for Alanine and CUU codon codes for Leucine.
  • Hence in the given sequence AUG is the start codon, UAA is the stop codon and the resulting amino acid sequence is Met-Ala-Leu-stop.

All of the following events occur during normal meiosis except _______. A. two haploid gametes fuse to form a diploid cell B. on
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

A. two haploid gametes fuse to form a diploid cell

Explanation:

Meiosis is a type of cell division. When a parent cell with "2n" chromosomes enters the process of meiosis, four daughter cells each with "n" chromosomes are formed. This occurs since homologous chromosomes separate from each other during anaphase-I. However, meiosis does not include the fusion of two haploid cells. The fusion of two haploid cells mainly occurs during the process of fertilization during which a haploid male gamete and a haploid female gamete fuse to form a diploid zygote.

Which star has an temperature of 10,000 K and a Luminosity of 10^2
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

i think White Dwarf

Explanation:

We are given that the star has a temperature of 10,000 K and a luminosity of 10^2. According to the HR diagram, a star with the surface temperature of 10,000 K would be a white dwarf and if the star were on the main sequence, then it would have a luminosity nearly 100 times more than that of the sun. However since the actual luminosity is 10,000 times smaller than this, this star must be a white dwarf since it has 10,000 K and 100 aka 10^2 luminosity
