In prokaryotes, how does the length of a typical monocistronic mRNA compare to the length of the protein generated from this mRN

A? a. There are more mRNA bases than amino acids. b. There are more amino acids than mRNA bases. c. The number of amino acids and the number of mRNA bases are roughly the same.Which of the following statements support the previous conclusion that there are more mRNA bases than amino acids? NOTE: While there may be some rare exceptions that don't support the conclusion, choose statements that typically support the conclusion Select all that apply. a. The mRNA contains a poly-A tail. b. The stop codon does not code for an amino acid. c. The start site of transcription is upstream of the start codon. d. The mRNA contains 5' and 3 untranslated regions. e. O Introns have been removed in the mRNA. f. Each codon contains 3 RNA bases. g. The mRNA contains a 7-methylguanosine cap.

1. The correct answer is: a. There are more mRNA bases than amino acids.

The transcription of monocistronic mRNA in prokaryotes is a rare process (it is more characteristic for the eukaryotes). Monocistronic mRNA is RNA, which encodes for only one or specific protein. Three bases of mRNA encode one amino acid of protein, thus it has more bases than amino acids of the final product, protein.  

2. The correct statements are:  

The mRNA contains 5' and 3' untranslated regions.

The stop codon does not code for an amino acid.

The start site of transcription is upstream of the start codon.

Each codon contains 3 RNA bases.

All of these approve that more bases are in mRNA since not all of them are translated into amin oacids.

Other statements are hallmarks of eukaryotic RNA processing, and therefore not relevant to prokaryotes.

Explain how using renewable and recyclable materials can benefit the environment.
Ierofanga [76]
Instead of burning coal to power our country we could use solar panels. As long as we have the sun we will have "free" energy.

Instead of continuing to mine for metals, we could recycle metals and then less greenhouse gases would be released into Earth's atmosphere.

How many calories are in an average trick-or-treaters halloween stash?
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

The number of calories on a Halloween stash depends on the type of candies and the number of units of each. If the stash contains 5 units of each of these candies: chocolate bars, taffies, lollypops, and candy corn the total number of calories is 1,650.

Calories are the most common unit used to define the energy a specific food gives to your body. For example, an apple has 52 calories, while a banana has 89 calories.

Considering this, in a Halloween stash the calories depend on two factors:

  • The types of candies or products
  • The units of each one

Let's suppose there are 5 units of each of the following candies:

  • Chocolate bars
  • Taffies
  • Lollypops
  • Candy corn

Let's now calculate the calories

  • Chocolate bars = 220 calories x 5 units =  1,100 calories
  • Taffies = 20 calories x 5 units = 100 calories
  • Lollypops = 83 calories x 5 units = 415 calories
  • Candy corn = 7 calories x 5 = 35 calories

Add all the previous results:

1,100 + 100 + 415 + 35 = 1,650 calories in total

PolarNik [594]

Answer: Keeping those genes locally in the mitochondria gives the cell a way to individually control mitochondria,” Johnston says, because pivotal proteins are created in the mitochondria themselves. ... Other structures in our cells could also benefit from this type of local control.
