A

Unlike in the past, the RNA of today does NOT carry genetic information.

Explanation:

The RNA world hypothesis stipulates that  RNA used to store genetic information before the evolution of DNA. RNA, however, is very unstable and it is believed it is the reason for the evolution of DNA which is a more stable form of storing genetic information of cells.

The RNA world hypothesis is supported by the fact that RNA is multifaceted and can also catalyse reactions –like protein enzymes, makes up ribosomes, and can self replicate.

rewona [7]
<span>The answer is ‘two sympatric species that eat similar-sized seeds’. Sympatric <span>speciations occur when a species population diverges without a physical barrier. Resources partitioning could occur when individuals in a population compete for same resources. Some individuals in that population may begin to utilize different resources to minimize the competition (and avoid being competitively excluded from the population).  Over time, this results in a divergence of the populations that utilize different resources hence carving out different niches. </span></span>

Murrr4er [49]

Answer: Diagnosis: The presence of nitrites in the urine confirms the urinary tract infection.

Explanation:

Treatment: The urinary tract infection will be concerned with the antibiotic therapy to kill the bacteria producing excess nitrites. Educating K.N. about the risk factors associated with the multiple sex partners and transfer of bacteria through sexual contact.

Use of fluroquinolones and nitrofurantoin:

Fluroquinolones: This is an antibiotic which has bacteriocidal property can be useful in the treatment of urinary tract infections.

Nitrofurantoin: It is an effective antibiotic in killing bacteria it gets activated inside the bacteria.

Nitrituria is a condition in which the nitrites are present in the urine that is indicative of the presence of bacterial infection. It is caused by the <em>E. coli</em> bacteria inside the urinary tract. It is responsible for converting the nitrates into nitrites.

What is the term for the nucleotide sequences that are removed during mrna processing?
Ne4ueva [31]

The correct answer is: introns

Processing of mRNA is process that occurs only in eukaryotic cells. After the transcription, newly formed mRNA molecule is called and it must be processed into a messenger RNA (mRNA). Processing includes:

• Addition of a 5' cap to the beginning of the RNA

• Polyadenilation- addition of a poly-A tail (tail of A nucleotides) to the end of the RNA

• Splicing- removal of introns and linking the exons

After these steps mRNA is mature and used for the further steps (e.g. translation).

Sometimes some genes are alternatively spliced.

Which of the following does not bind to the 50S ribosomal subunit?
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer: Option A. "tetracyclines"

Explanation:

Tetracyclines are defined as a group of broad-spectrum antibiotics that are either isolated directly from several species of Streptomyces bacteria or can be synthesised semi-synthetically.

Tetracyclines act as inhibitors of growth rather than killing the infectious agent. Tetracyclines passively diffuse through porin channels present in bacterial membrane. it reversibly bind to the bacterial 30S ribosomal subunit to inhibit protein synthesis and prevents the aminoacyl transfer ribonucleic acid (tRNA) from binding to A site of the ribosome.

Hence, it is proved that tetracyclines bind to 30s ribosomal subunit rather than 50S ribosomal subunit in the ribososmes.
