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.

Does evolution say blacks are subhumans? 3/4th human?
xenn [34]
No blacks are 100% human.. people are black because of the pigments in your skin. That is why we have light skins and dark skins not because light skins are more human than dark skins.

Proteins in the cell membrane have many functions. Which type of protein would be used primarily to transport materials in or ou
S_A_V [24]

So we know that to transport materials in or out of the cell, we need to have access to both the inside and outside of the cell. This would require that the protein be a transmembrane protein that reaches both the inside and the outside of the cell.

So in this case, let's look at pore proteins. These are proteins that cross a membrane and act as a pore for the materials that need to cross the membrane.

One example of a pore protein is an aquaporin. These proteins aid in the transport of water into or out of a cell.

Therefore, the answer to your question is: A) Pore proteins.

1) A plant gets 628.3 kcal of energy from the sun, what energy is left at the quartenary consumer level?
Jobisdone [24]

1. The energy left in the Quaternary consumer level is 0.06283 kcal.

2. 0.65 units of energy  is still available at the tertiary consumer level.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Energy flow in an ecosystem obeys the ten percentage law According to which ten percentage of energy from a trophic level gets transferred to the next trophic level. In the given question plants belong to the trophic level , producers  and it transfers 10 percentage of its energy to the primary consumer level.

In the question 1 the energy that the producers have is 628.3 kcal. Ten percentage of this i.e 62.83 kcal gets transferred to the primary consumer level. Ten percent of that which is 6.283 kcal gets transferred to the secondary consumer level.  Ten percent of 6.283 kcal i.e  0.6283 kcal energy is transferred to the tertiary consumer level.

Thus the Quaternary consumer level gets ten percentage of 0.6283 kcal i.e 0.06283 kcal. In question B the initial energy at the primary level is 650 units. Ten percentage of 650 i.e 65 units reach the primary consumer  level. Ten percentage of this 65 units then reaches the secondary consumer level. Thus the secondary consumer level has ten percent of 65 i.e 6.5 units of energy.  

So the energy that reaches the tertiary consumer level is ten percentage of 6.5 i.e 0.65 units.
