Within a cell, the amount of protein made using a given mRNA molecule depends partly on

Biology
1 answer:
Ksivusya [100]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

b. the rate at which the mRNA is degraded.

Explanation:

DNA is transcribed into mRNA which then joins ribosomes present in the cytoplasm to serve as a template for protein synthesis. Regulation of gene expression occurs at several levels.

One such regulatory mechanism is the stability of mRNA and the rate of its degradation which in turn affects the availability of template for the process of protein synthesis and thereby keeps a check on the total amount of protein being formed in a cell.

For example, a very short life span of bacterial mRNA (few minutes) allows them to regulate the pattern of protein synthesis quickly in response to the changes in surroundings.

A group of students wants to study the structures of animals in the desert. One question they should ask is-
Brrunno [24]

From studies and research, I believe the proper question would be:

"How do the animals satisfy their need for water?" or "How long do the animals live?"

Explanation 1:

When studying the desert, asking "Can you buy the animals in pet stores?" is not going to help you find information about the desert because it is not a question to get information about the desert, only information if you just buy it at your local pet shop.

Explanation 2:

Asking "How many offspring do the animals have?" does help us learn about animals, but we are trying to find information on the structure of the desert in which the animals live in. We are not looking for how many children the animals will have because it doesn't fully relate to the question we would be asking.

Side Note: Offsprings mean children.

What two elements have the same number of energy level (shells)?
melomori [17]

Answer:

Elements that are found in the same horizontal row (belong to the same period) in the periodic table, e.g. Fluorine and Neon both have the same energy level of 2.

<em>Note: The question does not specify any two elements.</em>

Explanation:

The modern periodic table is organized into eight vertical columns known as groups and seven horizontal rows known as periods. The atomic number ( number of protons in the nucleus) of elements increases when moving across the periodic table from left to right. The horizontal rows or periods represents an energy levels or the number of electron shells in an element. Energy levels (also called electron shells) are fixed distances from the nucleus of an atom where electrons may be found. Elements belonging to the same period have the same number of energy level or shells. For example, the elements belonging to Period 2 include lithium, beryllium, boron, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine and neon. These all have the same number of energy level of 2.

What statement most directly demonstrates a way that the geosphere is involved in the nitrogen cycle
Ulleksa [173]

B. bacteria that convert ammonia into nitrites and nitrates are found in the soil  

This statement best demonstrates a way that the geo-sphere is involved in the nitrogen cycle.

A nitrogen cycle is defined as the movement of nitrogen between the atmosphere, biosphere, and geo-sphere in different forms. Ammonia is converted to nitrates by nitrifying bacteria in the soil. Then the plants absorb these nitrates from the soil and use these to build up proteins.
