I need help with this question. Please help me! Why do organisms need enzymes?

1 answer:

7 0

Digestive enzymes speedup reactions that break down large molecules of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats into smaller molecules the body can use. Without digestive enzymes, animals would not be able to break down food molecules quickly enough to provide the energy and nutrients they need to survive.

Hope this helped

Are there photosynthetic organisms that do not contain chlorophyll? If so, what are

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

<h2><u>The ghost plant (Monotropa uniflora), for example, is an herbaceous perennial that contains no chlorophyll. Instead of producing its own energy from the sun, it steals energy from other plants much like a parasitic worm robs nutrients and energy from our pets</u></h2>

Complete question:

A gene on strand of DNA has the following nucleotide sequence: CCCAAGTGG

A) GGG UUC ACC

B) CCC AAG TGG

C) GGG TTC ACC

D) UUU CCC AGA

Explanation:

What are the mRNA triplets coded for from this gene?

A) GGG UUC ACC

RNA codons determine certain amino acids, so the order in which the bases occur within in the codon sequence designates which amino acid is to be made bus with the four RNA nucleotides (Adenine, Guanine, Cysteine and Uracil). Up to 64 codons (with 3 as stop codons) determine amino acid synthesis. The stop codons ( UAG UGA UAA) terminate amino acid/ protein synthesis while the start codon AUG begins protein synthesis.

Further Explanation:

All the genetic information within the eukaryotic cell is stored within the nucleus as helical DNA. This DNA is condensed and tightly wound around histones as chromosomes. Chromosomes within the nucleus is unwound, unzipped and read by enzymes in a complex series of steps known as transcription. The message on DNA, called genes is copied by RNA polymerase, to form mRNA complementary sequence to that of the DNA strand. These are then translated into proteins in ribosomes.

Nucleic acids like DNA stores all of an organism’s genetic information. Nucleic acid molecules comprise the nitrogenous bases Guanine, Adenine, Cytosine and Thymine. Conversely, RNA nucleotides are Adenine, Guanine, Cysteine and Uracil. These pair up as base pairs due to their varied structure- largely influenced by the location of N molecule.

In certain combinations, these bases form codons which act as instructions for protein synthesis. Codons are three nucleotide bases encoding an amino acid or signal at the beginning or end of protein synthesis. Thus, these contribute to the broad diversity of living organisms, as varied combinations of these 64 codons can produce many proteins which can be organized into cells, tissues and organisms.

Answer:

idk if it's good..

Explanation:

The dark-colored mice arose in the population at location A by random mutation. ... advantage over light-colored mice in that environment. • Over time, dark-colored mice became more common at location B because more of their offspring survived. to reproduce and pass on their genes, including genes for fur color.

In what phase of mitosis do the centrioles separate?

Olegator [25]

Answer:

Prophase

Explanation:

During prophase, chromatin condenses into chromosomes, and the nuclear envelope, or membrane, breaks down. In animal cells, the centrioles near the nucleus begin to separate and move to opposite poles (sides) of the cell.
