Answer:

1) Structural proteins provide support in our bodies, for example, the proteins in our connective tissues, such as collagen and elastin.

2) Hormone proteins co-ordinate bodily functions, for example, insulin controls our blood sugar concentration by regulating the uptake of glucose into cells.

trapecia [35]

Insulin and glucagon are hormones that help regulate the levels of blood glucose, or sugar, in your body. Glucose, which comes from the food you eat, moves through your bloodstream to help fuel your body.

Insulin and glucagon work together to balance your blood sugar levels, keeping them in the narrow range that your body requires. These hormones are like the yin and yang of blood glucose maintenance. Read on to learn more about how they function and what can happen when they don’t work well.

kondaur [170]

Answer:

the purpose of the translation is to make proteins. proteins are responsible for making bones, muscles, cartilage, skin and blood. proteins are synthesized from the information in a mRNA.

Process of translation

it happens in 3 phases

  • initiation: the small ribosomal subunits binds to the start of the of the mRNA sequence. then a tRNA molecule carrying the amino acid methoionine binds to start codon of the mRNA sequence. after that large ribosomal subunit binds to form the complete intiation complex.
  • elongation: the ribosome continues to translate each codon in turn each corresponding amino acid is added to the growing chain and linked via bond called peptide bond. elongation continues untill all the codons are read.
  • termination: it occurs when the ribosome reaches a stop codon. since there is no tRNA molecules that can recognise these codons the ribosome recognises that translation is complete.

after these 3 phases a new protein is realeasd

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

The correct answer is option d)"the percentage of pink flowers should increase over time".

Explanation:

In this study it is stated that two factors affect the flower coloration of <em>Claytonia virginica</em>: slugs preference of eating pink-flowering plants and bees preference of pollinating pink-flowering plants as well. If the researcher removes all slugs from the study population we can expect that the percentage of pink flowers should increase over time. The removal of the predator that prefers eating pink-flowering plants will favor the reproduction of this type of plants, which are also favored by bees pollination preference.
