I believe the miRNAs control gene expression by binding to mRNAs and degrading them or blocking their translation. The microRNAs are short non coding RNAs which function to regulate the process of gene expression. They bind to the 3-UTR of the target mRNAs and repress the production of protein by destabilizing the mRNA and translational silencing.

How are the processes of photos sentences and saw your respiration opposites of one another
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

This question is not well structured. Based on understanding, the correct structure should be: How are the processes of photosynthesis and respiration opposites of one another?

They are opposite because photosynthesis uses the products of cellular respiration and vice versa.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are both metabolic processes that occurs within the cells of living organisms. Photosynthesis is the process where green plants synthesize food (sugar) in the presence of sunlight using carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). The general equation is as follows:

6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2

On the other hand, respiration is the process whereby cells of living organisms synthesize usable energy (ATP) for use by breaking down glucose (C6H12O6) in the presence of oxygen. The equation is as follows:

C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O

Based on the observation of the reactants and products of each process, it can be realized that the PRODUCTS of one process is the REACTANTS of the other. In other words, photosynthesis makes use of CO2 and water as REACTANTS, which are the PRODUCTS of respiration while cellular respiration uses glucose and oxygen as REACTANTS, which are PRODUCTS of photosynthesis.

torisob [31]

Answer:

It is better to compare the average height gain of control and experimental groups of plants to eliminate all other variables.

Explanation:

If you evaluate individual plants, the data may vary. The experimental group is the one where an experimental procedure is performed while the control group does not receive any treatment.
