Answer:

Phagocytosis .

Explanation:

Phagocytosis is the process by which a cell engulfs large particle as defense or food.

In the process of phagocytosis  the cell extends its plasma membrane traps the particle or antigen  into a phagosome.

Inside the phagosome several lytic enzyme act on the particle and thus digests it.

Macrophages in our body are good exmples of phagocytic cells .

if the following mRNA strand were produced during transcription what amino acids would be found in the protein GGCUACGGGCAUCAC
ioda

The correct answer to your question is B. Glycine-Tyrosine-Glycine-Histidine-Histidine.

You can find this by taking groups of codons starting with the first group (GGC). GGC is located under Glycine so Glycine will therfore be an amino acid found in the protein. Continue doing this with the next codons to come up with the answer.

I hope this isn't too late and still helps!
