What is the purpose of alternative splicing in eukaryotic cells? What is the purpose of alternative splicing in eukaryotic cells

? Produce multiple types of tRNAs that can bind to different codons. Improve the efficiency of transcription and translation. Regulate the quantity of any single protein being produced in the cell. Produce multiple polypeptide sequences from a single primary transcript. Increase the number of genes that do not have to contain introns.

Answer:

Produce multiple polypeptide sequences from a single primary transcript.

Explanation:

Some genes produce more than one type of protein since the primary transcript encoded by these genes undergoes alternative splicing. These genes mostly have one segment that can serve either as intron or exon. Also called differential splicing, alternative splicing removes the segment as intron but retains it as an exon.

Splicing of the single primary transcript in different ways produces more than one version of mRNA from a single primary transcript encoded by a single gene. The alternative splicing allows the cells to produce multiple types of troponin proteins from single genes. These different troponin regulation muscle contraction in different muscles

What plane would you make if you divided a thanksgiving turkey into equal right and left halves?
nasty-shy [4]
<span>In anatomical terms, this plane would be known as the midsaggital plane. This plane bisects the body of the organism along its midline, yielding two symmetrical halves. Since such a plan would run right along the ribcage of the turkey, dividing it as such, it would be the accurate anatomical descriptor for such a division.</span>

A derived trait of land plants is the presence of small openings that allow gaseous exchange between the plant and its environme
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

B. stomata.  

Explanation:

Stomata are openings in the surface of the plant epidermis through which gases and water vapor pass. They are formed by two elongated cells whose shape is similar to bean grain or dumbbell depending on the species.  These cells are called guard cells, and in their midst there is a slit called the ostiole.

The stomata make the exchanges between the external and internal environment of the plant. They regulate the size of the opening, so it is possible to increase or decrease the rate of perspiration of the plant.

Stomata are usually located at the bottom of the leaf, but in aquatic plants such as the water lily they are at the top and still in vertical growing plants on both sides.
