How infections can be avoided
KonstantinChe [14]
Start with washing hands. That is a big deal when it comes to any sickness or infection inside the body or outside.
(Is the infection on the inside of outside?)
Inside: eat healthy. Stay clean. Don’t put anything in your mouth that doesn’t belong. Wash your hands. Don’t touch your eyes, ears, nose, or mouth without clean hands.
Outside: keep the potential infected area clean. Don’t get dirt or anything in it and don’t let anything touch it. Keep it covered and clean. Leave it uncovered to dry out if wet. Clean with alcohol/peroxide. Keep covered with a clean bandage, changed every few hours.

We know that all of our cells have an IDENTICAL set of DNA strands. We have learned that what makes them different is which part
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:  

Genes are composed of DNA arranged on chromosomes.

Some genes encode structural or regulatory RNAs. Other genes encode proteins.

Replication copies DNA; transcription uses DNA to make complementary RNAs; translation uses mRNAs to make proteins.

In eukaryotic cells, replication and transcription take place within the nucleus while translation takes place in the cytoplasm.

In prokaryotic cells, replication, transcription, and translation occur in the cytoplasm.

Key Terms

DNA: a biopolymer of deoxyribonucleic acids (a type of nucleic acid) that has four different chemical groups, called bases: adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine

messenger RNA: Messenger RNA (mRNA) is a molecule of RNA that encodes a chemical “blueprint” for a protein product.

protein: any of numerous large, complex naturally-produced molecules composed of one or more long chains of amino acids, in which the amino acid groups are held together by peptide bonds
