DNA fingerprinting is a laboratory technique used to establish a link between biological evidence and a suspect in a criminal in

vestigation. A DNA sample taken from a crime scene is compared with a DNA sample from a suspect. DNA evidence may also be used to analyze the crime scene in general. Scientists use DNA fingerprinting in agriculture as well as in breeding programs. Most recently, DNA fingerprinting has been used to predict the possibility of inheriting a specific disease or condition, as well as treating such diseases as cancer.
Doctors have found a DNA marker that predicts the inheritance of a deadly disease, ALS. The band of markers labelled "C" shows the pattern inherited by people with the disease. One member of the Green family, the father, has ALS. His four children have been tested and the results are shown here. To inherit the disease, you must inherit all markers. Will any of Mr. Green's children have the disease? Explain.
A) Yes. Child #1 has the markers for the disease.
B) Maybe. Child #1 has all but one of the markers for ALS.
C) No. None of the children have all of the markers for ALS.
D) No. The markers show that Mr. Green is not the father of the children.

How do trees act as carbon sinks?
Romashka [77]


The best answer is D.

A carbon sink is anything that absorbs more carbon than it produces or releases.

The main carbon sinks found in nature are plants, the ocean and soil.  Plants such as trees capture carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and use it in photosynthesis. Part of this carbon is transferred to soil as the trees and other plants die and decompose.

Due to the effectiveness of trees and other plants as carbon sinks,  the Kyoto protocol proposed that emission reduction can be achieved through absorption of carbon dioxide by these plants.

Complete the following vocabulary exercise related to the process of translation of mRNA to protein by the ribosome.Match the wo
vredina [299]

1. The RNA that has an amino acid attached to it, and that binds to the codon on the mRNA, is called a tRNA.

tRNA are molecules involved in protein synthesis (translation) and those molecules connect codons from mRNA with  the amino acids they encode.tRNA has anticodone that binds to mRNA codone.

2. The process, performed by the ribosome, of reading mRNA and synthesizing a protein is called translation.

Translation is a process of gene expression in which proteins are synthesized (translated from the codons on mRNA).

3. Initiation of translation always happens at the start codon of the mRNA.

Translation process can be divided into three stages: initiation (starting off), elongation (adding amino acids to peptide chain that is going to become protein) and termination (finishing up).

4. Amino acids are attached to tRNA by enzymes called aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase.

These enzymes are part of the elongation stage of translation and they catalyze the adding of amino acids.

5. Termination of translation happens when the ribosome hits a stop codon on the mRNA.

Termination is the stage in which the finished polypeptide chain (future protein) is released from the ribosome.
