On the Galapagos Islands, Darwin also saw several different types of finch, a different species on each island. ... Finches that ate small nuts and seeds had beaks for cracking nuts and seeds. Darwin noticed that fruit-eating finches had parrot-like beaks, and that finches that ate insects had narrow, prying beaks.
Answer:
C) binding to mRNAs and degrading them or blocking their translation
Explanation:
<u>miRNAs:</u>
miRNAs is the abbreviation of MicroRNAs. These are the small noncoding RNAs of ∼22 nucleotides which can not code for peptides. miRNAs are responsible for gene expression regulation at the level of post transcription. They can do so by forming complementary base pairing with target mRNA and inhibiting their translation.
They silenced mRNA by the following processes:
(1) Cleavage of the mRNA strand into pieces,
(2) stopping mRNA from translation into proteins by ribosomes.
(3) Shortening of mRNA poly(A) tail and destabilizing it.
Answer:
Option-D
Explanation:
Casparian strips are the strips or band composed of a hydrophobic substance called the suberin which forms the ring-like structure in the endodermis of the vascular plants.
The Casparian strips are present around the vascular bundles in the endodermis to allow the uptake of the selective nutrients as the substance has to pass through the cell membrane before it enters the centre of the root or stele or vascular bundles.
The Casparian strips allow the movement of a substance through symplast mode only, therefore, is ensures the substance to pass through the cell membrane.
Thus, Option-D is correct.
