Answer:
transcription initiation
Explanation:
Transcription is a process by which genetic information from DNA is used to synthesize an RNA molecule, usually, a messenger RNA (mRNA), which is subsequently utilized to synthesize a protein by a process called translation. Transcription in prokaryotes has three steps:
1-Initiation: the RNA polymerase is a multisubunit enzyme (holoenzyme) composed of two α, one β, one β’ and one ω and σ subunits (α2ββ’ωσ). This holoenzyme binds to the promoter region of the template DNA strand.
2-Elongation. The sigma σ factor of the holoenzyme is released and the complex and the core enzyme (α2 ββω) moves along the template strand, thereby producing an mRNA sequence
3-Termination. This step can be Rho-dependent, where a protein named "Rho" recognizes the termination site and stop transcription, and Rho-independent (transcription continues until the termination sequence is reached).
In consequence, Rifamycin is likely to block the initiation of transcription because the core RNA enzyme needs to bind the sigma factor (σ) for initiation of transcription in bacteria.
The correct answer would be D. DNA evidence showing it was more closely related to mammals than to other vertebrates <span />
Answer:
The correct answer is option - a virus.
Explanation:
Viruses are the infectious agents that are neither considered living nor nonliving organisms. The viruses possess the genetic material enclosed in the capsid made up of the proteins.
Genetic material or the genome of the viruses could be the DNA or the RNA as single or double-stranded forms. The viruses with RNA as genetic material termed as the adenoviruses such as tobacco mosaic viruses and HIV and others.
Thus, the correct answer is option - a virus.
Answer:
Stephen Stearns states that natural selection doesn't mean the survival of the fittest organisms, but rather this mechanism is illustrated by the selective reproduction of the fittest. Natural selection can be classified into distinct types, including directional, disruptive and stabilizing selection, which are in turn based on sexual selection. These types of selection are driven by different outcomes that have different dynamics.
