Flura [38]3 years ago

Answer:

Please find the explanation of transcription and translation below using the key words.

Explanation:

Transcription is the process whereby a gene in a DNA template is used to synthesize a messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule in the nucleus of the cell. This process of transcription occurs with the aid of an enzyme called RNA POLYMERASE, which adds the nucleotides complementary to the one it reads in the gene to the growing mRNA strand.

Translation, on the other hand, is the second process of gene expression involving the synthesis of proteins from the mRNA sequence. This process occurs in the RIBOSOME where a group of three nucleotides in the mRNA called CODON is read by another group of complementary nucleotide in the transfer RNA (tRNA) called ANTICODON. The tRNA then carries amino acids corresponding to what is read in the codon to the growing polypeptide chain.

A friend asks you how exocrine glands differ from endocrine glands. She knows that both form from invaginated epithelium. How do
klio [65]

Answer:

Exocrine glands secrete sweat and oil while endocrine glands secrete hormones.

Explanation:

As she knows the endocrine and exocrine glands in respect of their origin from skin, so our answer must be related to the skin so that she can understand easily. So our answer should be as follows -

  • Endocrine glands are those glands which secrete hormones directly to the blood stream but exocrine glands are those glands which secrete sweat and oils directly to the skin surface.
  • A duct is often present in exocrine glands but endocrine glands lack ducts.

#8 - The Genetic Code<br> 18. How many amino acids are involved in the production of proteins?
Phoenix [80]

Answer: 20 amino acids

Explanation:

The Genetic code permits the triplet nature of codons whereby three nucleotides from Adenine, Uracil, Guanine and Cytosine on the messenger RNA (mRNA) join to form 64 codons.

Since more than one codon can specify for an amino acid, the 64 codons then specify for 20 amino acids, that then form the sequence of various proteins
