Prior to its export from the nucleus, what modifications must be made to a mRNA molecule in eukaryotic cells?

Biology

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Before the mRNA which has been processed from DNA is taken and transported to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm for the translation process, some modifications are made to the mRNA before transport. This includes

1. Capping: addition of 5'-5' phosphate bonds to the 5' terminus of the mRNA. Forms the cap structure that is essentials for binding to ribosomes via special proteins attached to the cap structure

2. Addition of poly(A) tail: a poly(A) addition signal (AAUAAA) is attached to the 3' terminus of the mRNA. They are important in translation initiation and degradation prevention

3. Splicing: this is likely the most remarkable processing in eukaryotes. It involves the removal of intron regions by excision from the present-mRNA and then ligating the exon regions together giving rise to the mRNA.

In a Biology scientific report there will always be factors that change even if its by a little bit. In order to increase the “Reliability” of your conclusion or experiment you are required to do your experiment multiple times. Obviously in this case things such as the scale sensitivity will change according to the scale you use as well as if it is accurately set to scale but usually you will get a change in answer. The other thing you need to remember is that when the apple was originally measured they used another measuring tool to you therefore altering your answer ❤️

Which type of macromolecule combines with proteins to make compounds such as peptidoglycan and other types of identifying compou
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

Answered below

Explanation:

Pepetidoglycans are the structural polymers which make up the cell walls of most bacteria.

It consists of the macromolecule, glycan chains, which are repeating N-acetylmuramic acid and N-acetylglucosamine residues. These glycan chains combine or cross-link with peptide side chains (proteins) to form a mesh-like layer outside the plasma membrane of most bacteria.

Peptidoglycan is the major structural component and the basic unit of the bacterial cell wall and provides protection to the cytoplasmic membrane, mechanical rigidity and also regulates the passage of fluid, amino acids, sugar and ions, in and out of the cell.
