Answer:

D. After a gene is transcribed, introns are removed from the pre-mRNA to form the mRNA that is translated.

Explanation:

<em>The statement that provides the strongest evidence against the validity of Brendan's claim is that </em><em>after a gene is transcribed, introns are removed from the pre-mRNA to form a mRNA that is then translated.</em>

<u>A newly transcribed gene usually have two group of nucleotides - the exons and the introns. Exons are otherwise known as he coding sequence of a gene while introns are known as the non-coding sequence of a gene.</u>

After transcription, the introns are excised out of the nucleotide sequence of the newly produced mRNA. The remaining nucleotides are then spliced before they are transported to the cytoplasm to be translated into proteins.

<em>Hence, the sequence of amino acids in a protein that will be formed by a pre-mRNA cannot be determined until the non-coding sequence are removed.</em>

The correct option is D.

Example 1:

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) are like factories of cells. If we consider cell as a international clothing chain of companies, then ER are the ones which plan and design the clothing, sew those up, put additional buttons etc. on them, and then ship them on time. The workers (manual and automatic) do the whole procedure.

To understand it better in terms of cellular functions, ER create biomolecules essential for cells and the body as a whole. ribosomes are the workers which do the synthesis. With the help of ribosomes, ER makes the whole process of biomolecule synthesis, modification and delivery smooth, efficient and accurate.

Example 2:

Think of ER as Uber Eats. It provides you the catalogue of delicious food available and can be sent, then forwards your request to the restaurant, then sends a delivery person to wait and collect the order, and then orders the person to delivery food to the correct address on time.

Here, ribosomes would be the restaurants making the food.

**This is a simplification of the actual function of ER but I hope you get the gist. While talking about smooth and rough ER, the examples may change.

Which is not true about euglena?
RUDIKE [14]
Well, Euglena is in phylum Euglenophyta, and Paramecium is in phylum Ciliophora. You can verify that with a quick Google search.

lidiya [134]

Answer:

The correct answer is "negative".

Explanation:

At pH 2 the net charge of the R groups of all the amino acids that comprise the peptide in question would be positive. This happens because of the high content of protons in a solution of pH 2, a value that is below the isoelectric point of all the amino acids. Since the peptide would have a positive net charge, it would migrate to the negative terminal of the gel because opposite charges attract each other.
