Proteins are synthesized from ________ during synthesis reactions. nucleotides amino acids glycerol and fatty acids monosacchari
ANTONII [103]
I believe proteins are synthesized from amino acids during synthesis reactions.
Protein synthesis starts with transcription of mRNA from a DNA gene in the nucleus.Various types of RNA may have been synthesized using the appropriate DNA. The RNAs migrate from the nucleus to the cytoplasm where the process of translation takes place. During the process the mRNA with the codons (three nucleotide bases that code for a specific amino acids) is interpreted by the anticodons in the tRNA , thus forming amino acids with together forms polypeptides and then proteins are formed.

How is the water cycle related to the Carbon oxygen cycle​
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

The water cycle uses plants for uptake of water and transpiration from the surface, so that water can be sent to the atmosphere.  

Carbon cycle uses plants for uptake of CO2, by which it is removed from the atmosphere (and sent back to atmosphere when the plant is dead).

Explanation:

Both the cycles use plants as an integral component.  Both the water cycle and carbon cycle use subsurface for long term storage.  The water forms groundwater and can be stored for long duration.  Similarly, carbon is stored in rocks for long term.
