Explanation:

   Isotopes:

                          ₁₅³¹P   and     ₁₅³²P

     Given parameters:

       ₁₅³¹P                                                   ₁₅³²P          

   Mass number = 31                                    32

   Atomic number = 15                                 15

The two atoms are isotopes. Now let us derive numbers of their subatomic particles

                       ₁₅³¹P                                             ₁₅³²P  

Protons              15                                                 15

Electrons           15                                                  15

Neutrons         (31-15) = 16                               (32-15) = 17

Because they are isotopes, they differ in the number of neutrons alone.

Isotopy is the existence of two or more atoms of the same element having the same atomic number but different mass numbers due to the differences  in the number of their neutrons.

We clearly see that the mass number and number of neutrons pertaining to the atom differs. This makes them isotopes.

The end product of transcription is _____ and the end product of translation is _____.
ANTONII [103]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option C. And the full statement is:

The end product of transcription is <u>__mRNA___</u> and the end product of translation is _<u>_Proteins_</u>__.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Translation and the transcription are the two main process of central dogma of life.
  • DNA is the nucleotide sequence for the protein production. In this process DNA is first converted to RNA and then RNA moves to the cytoplasm for the production of proteins in the ribosomes.
  • So the transcription is process in which DNA is converted into mRNA in the cytoplasm.
  • In cytoplasm production of proteins by the mRNA is known as translation.
