Biology
1 answer:
yKpoI14uk [10]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Here are some of the differences I find  

Explanation:

\begin{array}{ll}\textbf{Cell membranes} & \textbf{Cell walls} \\\text{Consist of lipid bilayer} & \text{Consist of peptidoglycans, cellulose,or chitin} \\\text{Semipermeable} & \text{Permeable} \\\text{Thin} & \text{Thick} \\\text{Flexible} & \text{Rigid} \\\text{In animal and plant cells} & \text{Only in plant cells} \\\end{array}

The red arrows in the diagrams below point to these structures in animal and plant cells.

The component of cell membranes that regulate which molecules enter and leave the cell.
ololo11 [35]

Proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids (including cholesterol and phospholipids) make up the majority of the plasma membrane. Intracellular components are shielded from the extracellular environment by the plasma membrane. The materials that enter and leave the cell are controlled by the plasma membrane, which mediates cellular functions. All cells have a cell membrane, also known as a plasma membrane, which separates the interior of the cell from the external environment. A semipermeable lipid bilayer makes up the cell membrane. The movement of materials into and out of the cell is controlled by the cell membrane. Lipids (phospholipids and cholesterol), proteins, and carbohydrates make up the majority of the plasma membrane. The extracellular environment is shielded from intracellular components by the plasma membrane. By controlling the substances that enter and leave the cell, the plasma membrane facilitates biological processes. All cells contain a membrane that divides the interior from the external environment. This membrane is known as the cell membrane or the plasma membrane. A lipid bilayer that is semipermeable makes up the cell membrane. The cell membrane controls the movement of materials into and out of the cell.

In addition to splicing, additional modifications at the 5' and 3' end are required to generate a mature mRNA. What is the signi
Archy [21]

Answer:tailing at 3' end protects mRNA from attack by 3' exonuclease and 5' capping is useful for recognition of mRNA

Explanation:

The mRNA formed and released from the DNA template is known as primary transcript. In mammalian system, it undergoes intensive modification to become the mature mRNA.

Post transcription processing includes removal of Introns, splicing of exons, poly-A tailing at 3'end and capping at 5' end.

The Poly-A tailing at 3' end occurs in the nucleoplasm, the 3' end is polyadenlated involves with 20-250 nucleotides long. This tail protects mRNA from attack by 3' exonuclease activity

5' end capping end also is done in the nucleus. The cap is useful in recognition of mRNA by the translating machinery.
