Answer:

<h2>5'-UCAAUGC-3'</h2>

Explanation:

According to base pairing rule of DNA and RNA, A is always pairs with T ( in case of DNA) or with U ( in case of RNA) with two hydrogen bonds(A=T), and C is always pairs with G in both DNA and RNA  with three hydrogen bonds ( C≡G).

As given here, one segment of RNA molecule containing sequence 5'-GCAUUGA-3', so as the rule, G always binds with C and so on, so the sequence of the binding segment would be 3'-CGUAACU-5'. it can be written as 5'-UCAAUGC-3'

What part of the intestinal tract prevents backflow of food from the stomach into the esophagus? a. diaphragm b. lower esophagea
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The correct option is b. lower esophageal sphincter

Explanation:

The esophagus is the initial part of the digestive tract and its function is the transport of the alimentary bolus from the pharynx to the stomach, through the thorax and avoid the reflux thereof. It begins and ends in two sphincter structures, the upper esophageal sphincter and the lower esophageal sphincter, which separate it from the pharynx and stomach. The lower esophageal sphincter has two functions: relax during swallowing and prevent reflux of the gastric contents into the esophagus in the postdeglutory period. After swallowing, there is a relaxation of the lower esophageal sphincter, pressure dropping to levels similar to those of the gastric fundus, which allows the bolus to enter the stomach. This relaxation lasts a few seconds and is followed by a strong contraction that prevents backflow of food.
