Using Chargaff's Rules, which of the following satements about genomic base content is TRUE?

Biology
1 answer:
Ket [755]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The correct answer is option b. "Malnutrition has no significant effect on the genomic base pair content of a person's muscles".

Explanation:

Chargaff's Rules state that the content of nucleotides in the cells have a 1:1 ratio of pyrimidine and purine bases and  the composition of DNA varies from one species to another but not within the same specie. Therefore according to Chargaff's Rules malnutrition has no significant effect on the genomic base pair content of a person's muscles, since no variation of the genomic base pair content should occur within the same person or specie.

liubo4ka [24]
The first stage is TRANSCRIPTION, it is a process that takes place in the nucleus or in the cytosol, the DNA acts as a template to transcript it's information forming a new mARN molecule which contains the codons that codes an specific amino acid.

This mARN molecule will exit the nucleus and will be translated in the ribosomas that can be found in the cytosol or the Endoplasmic Reticulum. during TRANSLATION the mARN will be decoded to produce a polypeptide chain, this happens when the ribosome induces the binding of a tRNA anticodon sequences that are complementary to the mRNA codons, this will tell the ribosome which amino acid is needed to form the polypeptide chain.

It's important to clarify that in Prokaryotic cells, both of these stages take place in the cytosol since it doesn't have organelles binded by membrane unlike the Eukaryotic cells where the Transcription happens in the nucleus and the translation happens in the cytosol or endoplasmic reticulum

What are ejcs? Describe the importance of the ejc complexes for the export and stability of mrnas.
Alex Ar [27]

Explanation:

The Exon Junction Complex (EJC) is a eukaryotic molecular machine that interacts with spliced mRNA upstream of exon-exon junctions, providing a binding platform for other trans-acting proteins that determine the fate of the mRNA.  The spliceosome deposits the ~335kD EJC in a non-sequence specific manner 20-24 nucleotides upstream of an exon-junction.  Functionally, the EJC aids in nuclear export of spliced mRNAs, assists in nonsense-mediated decay of incorrectly spliced mRNAs containing premature stop codons, and enhances translation efficiency.

Pre-mRNA bound by a spliceosome is usually not exported from the nucleus, so as to make sure that only fully-processed mRNA travels to the cytoplasm to be translated.  A protein called the mRNP exporter binds to the EJC, both through RNA interactions and interactions with the EJC-associated protein REF (RNA export factor) to help pre-mRNA exit the nuclear pore complex.

Interestingly, the efficiency of unspliced mRNA export is dependent on the length; longer mRNAs are exported more efficiently than shorter mRNAs. In spliced mRNAs, however, once the 5' exon is long enough to bind the EJC, the length of the spliced mRNA does not affect the export efficiency.

There are a certain number of EJCs in a cell, and they must be recycled in order to continue tagging mature mRNAs. Once in the cytoplasm, the ribosome-associated regulator protein (PYM) acts as a dissociation factor.

What is the mechanical layer of earth that is solid rock and moves the least?
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

lithosphere

The lithosphere is the outermost mechanical layer, which behaves as a brittle, rigid solid. The lithosphere is about 100 kilometers thick. The definition of the lithosphere is based on how earth materials behave, so it includes the crust and the uppermost mantle, which are both brittle.
