The information contained within a gene is not directly copied into which of the following chemical forms?
pshichka [43]

The information contained within the gene is copied into a new molecule by the process of transcription. Transcription is a process by which the information from one strand of DNA is copied into a new molecule called messenger RNA or mRNA. Even though mRNA contains the same information it is not the exact copy of the DNA segment. Protein molecules include DNA and RNA and the genetic information is copied into the protein molecules by the process of transcription and translation. Transcription is a process by which the information coded in DNA is transferred to RNA, where as translation is a process where mRNA provides information for the Ribosome the type of amino acid to link with. As amino acids are made up of proteins there will be transfer of information contained in a gene to be transferred to protein. Whereas the function of tRNA is to carry amino acids to ribosome during the transcription hence it does not carry any genetic information where as rRNA combines with the set of proteins to form ribosomes. These rRNA molecule moves along with the mRNA molecule but does not carry any genetic information.

Therefore the answer is d

A. Most plants in the ditch will be plants with long roots.
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

A. Most plats in the ditch will be plants with long roots.  

Explanation:

Because the plants with shallower roots systems are easily uprooted by the rain, and there is lots of rain that year, natural selection will choose the long rooted plats. They are the "strongest" in evolution's eyes because they are less likely to die by being uprooted.

Why aren't there any cures for genetic disorders
Afina-wow [57]
Genetic disorders are caused by mutations in genes. These genes consist of DNA and are inherited by the organism by its parents. Genes code for specific amino acids, and they are so complex that we still do not completely comprehend the function of every gene in the human body so we cannot remove them in order to fix a disease. Moreover, every cell in an organism's body has the same genome (except the gametes) so it is not possible to delete the faulty gene from the cells.

How are Mercury and Earth's moon similar?
Vesna [10]
The answer is they both lack atmosphere.

Earth’s moon rotation speed is 2,288 miles per hour, while Mercury’s is 10.882 per hour.

Mercury and the Earth’s moon both have rocky surfaces, not smooth surfaces.

Both have a lack of atmosphere. Earth has an atmosphere that is able to support life. Mercury and the Earth’s moon do not.


Both are too cold, so they are not able melt rock and create volcanos.
