A cell biologist found that two different proteins with largely different structures were translated from two different mrnas. t

hese mrnas, however, were transcribed from the same gene in the cell nucleus. what mechanism that follows could best account for this?

1. Explain the function of white blood cells in the body.
Wittaler [7]

Answer:1. White blood cells are part of the body's immune system. They help the body fight infection and other diseases.

2. Red blood cells have adaptations that make them suitable for this.

3. The blood would not clot in case of an injury.

4. Blood supplies essential substances and nutrients.

Explanation: 1. White blood cells are able to recognize viruses and/or infectious germs, which is how they fight off disease/sickness. It is also why we have vaccines. Vaccines put either dead or weakened parts of a germ into your body. Then, the white blood cells recognize it and fight it off the next time it enters your body.

2. They contain hemoglobin, a red protein that combines with oxygen. They have no nucleus so they can contain more of the hemoglobin. they are small and flexible so that they can fit through narrow blood vessels.

3. This will lead to excess blood loss and can even lead to the death.

4. Such as as sugar, oxygen, and hormones to our cells. It also carries waste away from the cells, this waste is eventually flushed out of the body in urine, feces, sweat, and lungs.

Why do we want to turn genes off or on?
Dmitrij [34]

The process of turning off and on of genes is known as gene regulation.

Explanation:

When the gene is turned on, it instructs the cells to construct a particular protein. The proteins are the molecules that build your body with collagen, tendons, and bones or keratin in your hair.

The gene regulatory proteins allow the individual genes of an organism to be turned on or off . in different cell types there are different selections of gene regulatory proteins. The patterns of the gene expression gives each cell its unique characteristics.

Each cell produces or turns on only a fraction of its genes. the remaining genes are repressed or turned off. this process is known as gene regulation. The signals from the environment or from other cells activate proteins called transcription factors.

What characteristic of are found in veins but not arteries?
Paul [167]

Answer: Possession of Valves

Explanation: Veins possess valves which ensures that blood flows in only one direction. Valves helps blood to flow back to the heart against gravitational force.

Arteries don't have valves because the pressure originating from the heart is capable of causing the blood to flow in one direction.

Marianna [84]
The cavity of right ventricle is larger I believe. This is due for the fact that the left ventricle is thicker in muscle so may have a smaller cavity. I’ve also performed dissections lol.

After chromosomes are formed, during which phase of mitosis do the chromosomes attach to the spindle fibers by their centromeres
lorasvet [3.4K]
4.Metaphase
All of the chromosomes are aligned midway between the spindle poles. A spindle is a dynamic network of microtubules that attaches to and moves chromosomes during nuclear division. Microtubules attach each chromatid to one of the spindle poles, and its sister to the opposite pole.
