Answer:

Explanation:

P.falciparum is malaria parasite that replicate itself in human body. Atovaquone is a medication used in the cure of Malaria together with proguanil. Atovaquone is a hydroxynaphthoquinone, it inhibits the mitochondrial electron transport chain at the cytochrome bc1

The action of Atovaquone and it metabolites

cycloguanil complement the action of malaria parasite. Atovaquone does not have direct effects on the parasite it only enhance its ability to collapse the membrane potential of malaria parasites by sensitizing mitochondria to atovaquon.

The function of the mitochondrial pathway is to produce a proton gradient that is required for maintaining the membrane potential processes such as protein synthesis, and citric acid cycle

If the researcher compares mRNA from inside the nucleus to mRNA from the ribosomes, what will be found
wolverine [178]

Shorter mRNA will be found in the ribosomes when comparisons are made

with the  mRNA from inside the nucleus.

<h3>Ribosomes</h3>

Ribosomes are organelles which acts as sites for protein synthesis. This is

where the mRNA gets converted into polypeptides which have longer

chains.

Ribosomes have a shorter mRNA in the ribosome which becomes longer in

the nucleus after synthesis of larger polypeptides.  this is the reason why

there is a variation in the size of the mRNA found in the ribosome and

nucleus.
