Answer:

UAC

Explanation:

This example portrays that translation, which is the second process of protein synthesis, is about to occur. Translation cannot occur without a special type of RNA called tRNA or transfer RNA.

A tRNA contains a set of three nucleotides called ANTICODON. The tRNA matches an mRNA codon with the amino acid it encodes. The tRNA initially binds to the mRNA and reads the mRNA codon using its anticodon (which is complementary to the mRNA's codon). The actual reading is done by matching the base pairs through hydrogen bonding following the base pairing rule i.e. A-U, G-C. After reading the mRNA codon using its anticodon, it then carries the specific amino acid encoded by that codon it binds to, in order to add to the growing polypeptide chain.

For example, a codon AUG (start codon that signals beginning of translation) will be read by tRNA anticodon, UAC. Since the codon AUG codes for amino acid, Methionine. The tRNA then carries Methionine via its amino acid attachment site and adds to the polypeptide chain (future protein).

Karolina [17]

The more polar A compound moves ahead of the less polar B compound.

Explanation:

The analytical process that involves the separation of colored substance or chemicals is named as paper chromatography, a replacement of thin-layer chromatography. In this method, there is the use of two solvents and rotation of paper at 90^0. It helps in isolating two complex compounds of equal polarity.

A non-polar mixture of solvent is required in the mobile phase of this method. In accordance with the retention factor of this process, the more polar compound A will go further than compound B as the solvent is non-polar.

Answer: D) Centrioles

-------

Centrioles are only found in animal cells and they help during cell division. They organize the spindle fibers that help elongate the cell and separate the chromosomes.

Answer:

↓

Explanation:

I can't really read what you have typed, but the subscripts are the little numbers such as this 2 in H₂O. So using the blue pen, I'm assuming you would circle the little numbers. The coefficients are the numbers in front of the elements so from what I can read, in 2HCl the 2 would be circled in the orange. So in a simple way the subscripts are the tiny numbers that are at the bottom (usually after elements), and the coefficients are normal numbers in front of the whole element.

Hopefully that makes sense! :)
