Answer:

No it would not be useful for cell.

Explanation:

RNA polymerase uses only one strand of DNA which is called the template strand for the synthesis of mRNA. The other strand which is not used to make mRNA is called the coding strand.

If an RNA polymerase is designed which transcribe both the strand than two different strands of mRNA will be generated that will have different nucleotide sequences and will code for different proteins. So one strands will generate a protein which have different amino acids sequence that will complicate the overall process for the cell.

Another problem is if two RNA strands are formed then they can form a double helix and the ribosome might not be able to bind on them and translation might stop. Therefore it would not be useful for cell.

Mitochondria and chloroplasts are thought to have been ______.

yawa3891 [41]

Mitochondria and chloroplasts likely evolved from engulfed prokaryotes that once lived as independent organisms.
(At some point, a eukaryotic cell engulfed an aerobic prokaryote, which then formed an endosymbiotic relationship with the host eukaryote, gradually developing into a mitochondrion. Eukaryotic cells containing mitochondria then engulfed photosynthetic prokaryotes, which evolved to become specialized chloroplast organelles).

Name three ways that humans benefit from the use of seedless plants

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

They support life by being the first vegetation to spring up on harsh terrain where soil is scarce. Even when they perish, seedless plants give back to nature. Certain seedless plants like moss and liverworts actually leave behind a layer of fertile soil for other plants when they perish.

Explanation:

Seedless plants have historically played a role in human life through uses as tools, fuel, and medicine. Dried peat moss, Sphagnum, is commonly used as fuel in some parts of Europe and is considered a renewable resource.
