Answer:

In eukaryotes, it is well known that polyadenylation is required to produce the mature messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule and it provides stability to the mRNA during translation initiation. In prokaryotic organisms, polyadenylation is required for the degradation of the mRNA in a mechanism that involves three steps: endonucleolytic cleavage, polyadenylation and exonucleolytic degradation. Moreover, it is also important to note that no evidence of polyadenylation has bee reported in some prokaryotes including the halophilic bacteria Haloferax volcanic (Slomovic et al. 2005).

Show the following as a food chain: omnivore, autotroph, herbivore
Thepotemich [5.8K]

omnivore⇒herbivore⇒autotroph

this is because an autotroph makes its own food (photosynthesis) so it doesn't have the need to eat other organisms. Herbivores eat only plans (remember this with the word herb is a type of plant) and an omnivore will eat either meat or plants so it can eat either of the things below it.

The two nucleotide chains of RNA twist into a double helix shape. true or false ​
Sav [38]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

In DNA, there are four possible nitrogen bases – adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T). In DNA, nucleotides combine to form two long chains that intertwine with each other, like a ladder that has twisted into a spiral.
