Need a hypothesis for “How are proteins built from RNA”

Hi!


Hypothesis:

<em>Proteins are built from the translation of messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules</em>


RNA, or ribonucleic acid, is a structure that is similar to DNA, except that it exists as a single strand, consists of a ribose sugar instead of a deoxyribose sugar and has the base uracil (U) instead of thyamine (T).


<h3><u>From DNA to RNA</u></h3>

RNA is generated through transcription of the DNA molecule, resulting in a <em>complementary </em>molecule of the template DNA strand. For instance, if the sequence of the DNA was:

ATGCGCAGTTATTGCGAT

The corresponding RNA sequence will be:

UACGCGUCAAUAACGCUA    <em>(complementary with U instead of T)</em>


<h3><u>From RNA to Protein</u></h3>

The RNA molecule in our case is known as the mRNA. After transcription the mRNA molecule is transported to the cytoplasm, where a ribosome binds to it for another molecule to translate the sequence. This translation is mediated by an RNA molecule known as the tRNA molecule which enters the ribosome to catalyze the reaction.

These molecules identify a sequence of 3 bases (codon) and for specific codon sequences, the tRNA allocates specific amino acid. For instance, for the codon <em>UCA</em>, the tRNA will allocate a <em>Serine residue.</em>

This translation process starts at specific three base sequences, known as start codons, and terminates at specific three base sequences known as stop codons.

In this manner, a sequence of amino acids respective to the mRNA codon sequence is synthesized, and as we identify proteins as chains of amino acids that are covalently linked together through peptide bonds, we can clearly see that proteins are built directly from RNA, and indirectly from DNA.


Hope this helps!

Why are both biotic and abiotic features important in ecosystems and biomes?
Sati [7]

Answer:

Hope this is helpful! Sorry if my answer is choppy.

Explanation:

Biotic and abiotic features are both important in ecosystems because for example, a biotic factor like a plant, relies on an abiotic factors like the rain and the sun. If the rain were non existent, then the plants would no longer be alive causing a chain reaction in the food system. Biotic factors like plants and animals that are non existent can also cause negative effects in biomes and ecosystems.

STatiana [176]

Answer:

There are several reasons why it might be a good idea to write down your ideas and discoveries when you perform initial research on a topic. First, when you begin your research, you might get a lot of questions and doubts because you are not familiar with the topic. If you write these down, you are more likely to seek answers to these questions later on and gain a better understanding of them. Second, your initial ideas might not be all good, but they might lead you towards a good thesis. Writing them down ensures that these are not lost. Finally, by writing down your ideas and thoughts you actively engage with the subject, leading you to a better understanding of it.
