The question is incomplete. The correct question is as following:
__________ studied the role of RNA in protein synthesis, specifically in the bacteria E. coli.
Answer:
Marshall Nirenberg and Heinrich Matthaei
Explanation:
Marshall Nirenberg and Heinrich Matthaei are two biochemist and geneticist who studied the functional importance of RNA in the process of translation (protein synthesis) experimentally in E.Coli.
Nirenberg and Matthaei discovered the first codon out of 64 codons present in RNA and they successfully performed translation (protein synthesis) in E.coli in a test tube. They decoded the first codon UUU (phenylalanine) by using synthetic RNA having only uracil nucleotides in a E.Coli and later they decoded further codons.
So, the correct answer is Marshall Nirenberg and Heinrich Matthaei.
thylakoids
Chloroplasts contain saclike photosynthetic membranes called thylakoids, which are interconnected and arranged in stacks known as grana. Pigments are located in the thylakoid membranes. The fluid portion outside of the thylakoids is known as the stroma.
An herbicide is a weed killer. It is very harmful to plants, so the correct answer would be D. The herbicide would kill the native plants.
