1. A seed leaf - cotyledon
2. A flowering plant with seeds that have two seed leaves - dicotyledon
3. A food storage tissue - endosperm
4. A flowering plant with seeds that have one seed leaf cotyledon - monocotyledon
Answer:
Answer: Homozygous
Explanation:
An organism in which the two copies of the gene are identical that is, have the same allele is called homozygous for that gene.
MRNA is a single-stranded molecule that carries genetic code from DNA in a cell's nucleus to ribosomes, the cell's protein-making machinery.
Answer: alleles
Explanation:
"An allele is a variant form of a gene. Genes come in different varieties, called alleles. Somatic cells contain two alleles for every gene, with one allele provided by each parent of an organism."- Nature .com
The correct answer is: introns
Processing of mRNA is process that occurs only in eukaryotic cells. After the transcription, newly formed mRNA molecule is called and it must be processed into a messenger RNA (mRNA). Processing includes:
• Addition of a 5' cap to the beginning of the RNA
• Polyadenilation- addition of a poly-A tail (tail of A nucleotides) to the end of the RNA
• Splicing- removal of introns and linking the exons
After these steps mRNA is mature and used for the further steps (e.g. translation).
Sometimes some genes are alternatively spliced.
