Transcription is the process by which the DNA molecule makes an RNA molecule using enzyme RNA polymerase and other proteins. The mRNA is then used to generate proteins by a process called translation which occurs in the cytoplasm. Transcription occurs in the nucleus because DNA cannot leave the nucleus.
Answer:
I'd need the data from the population sizes of the algae, walleye pollock, orca, ocean sunfish and sea turtles. And I'd also need water temperature data, levels of dissolved oxygen.
Explanation:
The jellyfish population may have increased because of an increase in phytoplankton. This leads to an increase in
zooplankton; a decrease in walleye pollock, leading to an increase in zooplankton; or an increase in orcas, leading to a
decrease in sea turtles. Sea turtles, being the main predator for keeping the jellyfish population in check.
Also, if there are more red algae, jellyfish polyps have less place to grow. Without it, the polyps can attach itself on every surface.
<span>The correct answer is "the perineum" This is the correct answer because it boarders the pubic symphysis anteriorly, the coccyx posteriorly, and both ischial tuberosities laterally.</span>
How do the genes in our DNA influence our characteristics? For example, how can a gene determine
whether a person is an albino with very pale skin and hair?
Basically, a gene is a segment of DNA that provides the instructions for making a protein, and
proteins influence our characteristics. This chart describes how two different versions of a gene result
in two different versions of a protein which in turn can result in either normal skin and hair color or
albinism.
DNA Protein Characteristic
Version of the gene that provides
instructions to make
normal protein enzyme
Normal enzyme that makes the
pigment molecule in skin and
hair
Normal skin and hair
color
Version of the gene that provides
instructions to make
defective enzyme
Defective enzyme that does
not make this pigment
molecule
Albinism (very pale
skin and hair)
A gene directs the synthesis of a protein by a two-step process.
The first step is transcription of the gene in the DNA.
Transcription produces a messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule.
The second step is translation of the mRNA molecule.
Translation produces a protein molecule.
During transcription, the sequence of
nucleotides in a gene in the DNA is
copied to a corresponding sequence
of nucleotides in mRNA.
During translation, the sequence of
nucleotides in the mRNA determines
the sequence of amino acids in the
protein.
After translation, the sequence of amino acids in the protein determines the structure and function of
the protein. Differences in protein function can influence characteristics such as normal skin and hair
color vs. albinism.
Answer:
the relationship between genes, proteins, and traits a gene codes for a particular protein that is involved in the expression of a trait
Explanation:
characteristics determined by single genes are called Mendelian traits
