The appearance of water droplets at the tips and edges of the leaves of a plant is caused by a secretory process called guttation. It often occurs under conditions of moist soil, high humidity, and relatively cool air and it usually occurs in the early morning.

Answer:

A transfer RNA (abbreviated tRNA and formerly referred to as sRNA, for soluble RNA is an adaptor molecule composed of RNA, typically 76 to 90 nucleotides in length,that serves as the physical link between the mRNA and the amino acid sequence of proteins. Transfer RNA does this by carrying an amino acid to the protein synthetic machinery of a cell (ribosome) as directed by the complementary recognition of a 3-nucleotide sequence (codon) in a messenger RNA (mRNA) by a 3-nucleotide sequence (anticodon) of the tRNA. As such, tRNAs are a necessary component of translation, the biological synthesis of new proteins in accordance with the genetic code.

Each mRNA molecule is simultaneously translated by many ribosomes, all reading the mRNA from 5′ to 3′ and synthesizing the polypeptide from the N terminus to the C terminus. The complete mRNA/poly-ribosome structure is called a polysome.

tRNAs in eukaryotes

The tRNA molecules are transcribed by RNA polymerase III. Depending on the species, 40 to 60 types of tRNAs exist in the cytoplasm. Specific tRNAs bind to codons on the mRNA template and add the corresponding amino acid to the polypeptide chain. (More accurately, the growing polypeptide chain is added to each new amino acid bound in by a tRNA.)

The transfer RNAs (tRNAs) are structural RNA molecules. In eukaryotes, tRNA mole are transcribed from tRNA genes by RNA polymerase III.

Serving as adaptors, specific tRNAs bind to sequences on the mRNA template and add the corresponding amino acid to the polypeptide chain. (More accurately, the growing polypeptide chain is added to each new amino acid brought in by a tRNA.) Therefore, tRNAs are the molecules that actually “translate” the language of RNA into the language of proteins.

What are nodes, internodes, apical buds, &amp; axillary buds?
xxMikexx [17]
Axillary buds are found at the insertion point of leaves and lateral branches in the nodes and give rise to lateral branches and flowers. Internodes are the stem regions between nodes. They lack lateral organs. It can be said that the stem is made up of nodes, internodes and axillary buds tidily arranged.

Assume that two genes are 80 map units apart on chromosome II of Drosophila and that a cross is made between a doubly heterozygo
STatiana [176]

Answer:

The recombination frequency between two genes exhibits a positive correlation with the distance between them, that is, farther they are, and more will be the chance of recombination. Thus, recombination frequency is used to signify distance among the two genes, for example, 1 percent recombination frequency demonstrates distance of 1 map unit.  

Let us consider that the heterozygous female of genotype AaBb can generate four kinds of gametes, that is, AB, Ab, aB and ab. Of these, the two gametes are the outcomes of recombination, or it can be said that 50 percent are recombinants. Thus, it can be concluded that in case of two linked genes, the maximum probable recombination frequency is 50 percent.  

This shows that any genes, which are distant than 50 map units will function as unlinked and will function as if they were on distinct chromosomes, and the frequency of recombinant frequency will be 50 percent.  

In the given question, it is given that the map distance between the two genes is 80 map units, that is, more than 50 map units. The maximum probable recombinant offspring will be 50 percent of the entire offspring.
