What are the functions of the three major forms of RNA (ribosomal RNA, messenger RNA, and transfer RNA)?

Biology
1 answer:
vovangra [49]2 years ago

Answer:

Ribosomal RNA: Structural part of ribosomes

Messenger RNA: Carry genetic information from DNA to proteins

Transfer RNA (tRNA): Transport amino acids to protein synthesizing complex.

Explanation:

Ribosomes are made up of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and proteins. The catalytic activity for the formation of peptide bonds between amino acids during protein synthesis resides the RNA of ribosomes.  

Messenger RNA (mRNA) is formed by the process of transcription during which the nucleotide sequence of the template DNA strand is copied into that of the RNA. The mRNA serves as a template for protein synthesis. The nucleotide sequence of mRNA is read in the form of genetic codes to specify the amino acid sequence of a protein. In this way, the genetic information stored in DNA is carried to the proteins.

During the process of protein synthesis, tRNAs carry amino acids to the mRNA-ribosome complex so that the amino acids are incorporated into the polypeptide. For the purpose, there is a tRNA with a specific anticodon sequence for a particular amino acid.

Which statement about plasma membranes is correct?
diamong [38]

The statement that is correct about plasma membranes is that both plant cells and animal cells have flexible plasma membranes (option C).

<h3>What is the plasma membrane?</h3>

Plasma membrane is the semipermeable membrane that surrounds the cytoplasm of a cell. The semi-permeability of the plasma membrane means it allows some molecules through but blocks other substances.

The plasma membrane is the cellular structure that protects and encompasses the cell's content.

All living organisms possess the plasma membrane, which is also called cell membrane.

Therefore, the statement that is correct about plasma membranes is that both plant cells and animal cells have flexible plasma membranes.

Can someone please help on these two question Please I don't get this at all I'm really confused
marissa [1.9K]
Alleles are letters that represent dominant and recessive traits.

A capital letter represents a dominant trait
A lowercase letter represents a recessive trait.

Dominant traits over shadow the recessive ones. This is known as complete dominance.

Referring to your questions let's us the alleles HH, Hh, and hh for the height of the pea plants.

But what do those letters mean?

HH = homozygous dominant (Tall)
Homo means same.

hh = homozygous recessive (Short)

Now this is different: here's Hh.
There's a capital AND lowercase letter.
This means that the plant carries the gene for tall and short plants, and can pass on either trait to the offspring.

BUT the dominant always over shadows the recessive. So Hh is a tall plant.

Hh = heterozygous (hybrid) (Tall)
You can interpret hetero meaning different.

Now I hope you're with me!

For question two it asks if a short plant can ever be a hybrid.
Referring to what I just said, that answer would be no.
Because there is no dominant trait to over shadow the recessive.

And short plants have the hh alleles, and they are homozygous NOT heterozygous (hybrid).

I hope this helps, and makes sense! If you have any questions please let me know. Genetics can be confusing.
