Answer: Ruffini corpuscle

Explanation:

Ruffini corpuscle: deformation of skin and tissues; responsible for heavy touch and side pressure. They are located on the deepest layers of the skin and other deeper tissues. They are slow adapting receptors - they detect the state of continuous deformation of the skin and deep tissues such as strong and continuous touch and pressure. Are located also in the joints and help signal the degree of rotation of the joint.

What is responsible for termination of transcription in eukaryotic protein-coding genes?
kupik [55]

Answer:

<h2>A polyadenylation signal or poly(A) </h2>

Explanation:

Termination. In eukaryotes, transcription is terminated differently for the all 3 different RNA polymerases. Transcription is terminated by two elements: i) a poly(A) signal and ii) a downstream terminator sequence.

In eukaryotic protein-encoding genes, the cleavage site in the RNA occurs between an upstream( the sequence before the cleavage site) AAUAAA  and a downstream GU-rich, separated by approx 40-60 nucleotides. After they both have been transcribed, a protein knows as CPSF  and another protein called CstF( in humans)  helps in termination.

Which is not true of gene expression?
MrRissso [65]

In simple terms, Gene expression can be stated as the process by which the heredity details in a gene sequence a be made into a functional gene.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The odd one for this question is probably would be "it occurs because of cellular signals within your body".
  • It explains how a cell functions. In Gene expression, the gene encodes the protein and the message from DNA to RNA gives the cell functions.
  • It is the specific combination of genes that are turned on or off. It can be stated as the process of turning off and turning on, it acts as a switch to on and off it is known as the gene expression or gene regulation.
  • It creates different DNA within each of your cell types. The unique design of gene expression results in unique and different combinations of proteins and makes each cell types.
