<span>D. must rely on other means than photosynthesis. </span>Because sunlight is inadequate at the bottom of the sea, photosynthesis cannot take place. There are no plants and food is scarce; usually decaying matter from dead organisms. Organisms in the bottom of the sea relies on chemicals from hydrothermal vents to create their own food through chemosynthesis.

What makes up the "tail" of an ATP molecule? 3 phosphate groups ribose adenine 2 phosphate groups
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

The tail of an ATP molecule is made up by 3 phosphate groups link together by the help of 2 high energy phospho anhydride bonds.

Explanation:

ATP or adenosine tri phosphate is an energy rich compound that contain adenine base, ribose sugar and 3 phosphate groups.

                  These 3 phosphate groups makes up the tail of ATP molecule.The 3 phosphate groups are designated as alpha phosphate,beta phosphate and gamma phosphate starting from the C5 atom of ribose sugar.

          When ATP undergo hydrolysis the terminal phosphate group or the gamma phosphate group is cleaved from the ATP molecule resulting in the formation of ADP and inorganic phosphate along with the generation of high amount of free energy that is utilized by the cell to perform various cellular and physiological activities.

How would a mistake in transcribing the DNA message affect your ability to catch the killer?
mel-nik [20]

Answer: When the DNA collected on the crime scene is being analysed in the forensic lab, the results will be inconclusive, because error in DNA transcription, particularly in mRNA encoding leads to inheritable phenotype change by reprogramming the transcriptional network, without changing the DNA. Transcription errors are brief with no long-term consequences. Due to mRNA being short-lived and the erroneous proteins are degraded. A decrease in transcription accuracy triggers cellular identity change.

Explanation: This is called epimutation, a heritable modification that results in the change of gene expression, but not the DNA sequence. Epimutation is not associated with DNA mutation, but is associated with the loss or gain of DNA methylation or other heritable changes of the chromatin.

Protein synthesis can be compared to building a doghouse. Sondra wanted to build a doghouse and found a book in the reference se
Nimfa-mama [501]

The correct answer is mRNA.

mRNA or messenger RNA is synthesized during the process of transcription, from DNA molecule which is used as a template. mRNA contains information about protein synthesis (translation) in the form of nucleotide triplets or codons.

In the example above: reference book is DNA molecule (template for copies), copies are mRNA, wood is amino acids (building blocks) and doghouse is protein.

What is likely happening at the boundary between the Nazca plate and the<br> Pacific plate?
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

Where the two plates meet, the denser oceanic lithosphere of the Nazca Plate is forced down and under the more buoyant continental lithosphere of the South American Plate, descending at an angle into the mantle in a process called subduction.
