Answer:

C. Gly-Ser-Arg

Explanation:

Gene expression is an important process in living cells as it involves the synthesis of useful products (proteins) needed for optimal functioning of the cell. Gene expression occurs in two major stages viz: transcription and translation. Transcription involves the synthesis of a mRNA molecule using a DNA template.

Translation, on the other hand, occurs in the ribosome (organnelle for protein synthesis). The mRNA molecule produced during transcription is read in a group of three nucleotides called CODON. Each codon specifies a particular amino acid i.e. as one codon is read, one amino acid is added to the polypeptide chain (future protein).

Based on this, a mRNA molecule with a sequence: GGU AGC CGG is composed of three codons, which codes for three amino acids. Using the genetic code provided as an attachment to this question,

Codon GGU codes for Glycine (Gly) amino acid

Codon AGC codes for Serine (Ser) amino acid

Codon CGG codes for Arginine (Arg) amino acid.

Hence, GGU AGC CGG mRNA sequence will synthesize an amino acid sequence: Gly-Ser-Arg.

Which of these processes does not require the cell to use energy A cell division b protein synthesis c DNA replication D diffusi
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

D diffusion across a membrane

Explanation:

Based on whether or not energy input is required, there are two types of processes viz: passive and active. Passive processes are those that do not require energy input in form of ATP while active processes require energy input to occur.

An example of passive process is DIFFUSION, which is the movement of molecules from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration across a membrane. Diffusion is passive i.e does not require energy, because movement occurs down a concentration gradient.

Other processes in the options like cell division, DNA replication and protein synthesis all require energy input to occur.
