g A mutation occurs upstream of gene A in the region encoding the ribosome binding site, making it bind more weakly to the ribos

ome. Predict how this mutation will impact the levels of mRNA and protein produced for gene A. Clearly state how mRNA levels will change and how protein levels will change in this mutant relative to wild type bacteria. Restrict your answer to 1-2 sentences.

Answer:

it is expected that the mutation results in a reduced initiation of translation and thereby decreasing the level of the protein A, while it does not change the level of mRNA A

Explanation:

Translation in bacteria starts with the formation of the initiation complex which is composed of the small ribosomal subunit, the messenger RNA (mRNA), initiation factors and the initiator transference RNA (tRNA) containing N-formyl-methionine. The small ribosomal subunit binds to a polypurine stretch of variable length in the mRNA called 'the Shine-Dalgarno sequence'. A mutation in this sequence reduces the affinity of the ribosome for the mRNA, thereby, in this case, decreasing the level of protein A. Since transcription occurs before translation, it is expected that this mutation does not change the level of expression of the mRNA A.

3. Plastids

4. Size

5.  Plasmodesmata

Explanation:

1. Animal Cells dont have cell wall, while Plant Cells do.

2. Animal Cells contain many/ multiple vacuoles, while Plant Cells only contain one.

3. Animal Cells dont have plastids, Plant Cells do have (eg. Chloroplasts)

4. Animal Cells are larger in comparison to Plant Cells

5. Animal Cells dont have plasmodesmata while Plant Cells do have.

Acompound has the empirical formula CH.
ozzi
The empirical formula is the simplest whole number ration that defines constituent atoms in a species. The molecular formula is always a multiple of the empirical formula.

Molecule Formula = 78.0 • g • mol ^ -1 = n(12.011 + 1.00794) • g • mol ^ -1

78
N = ——————————- = 6
12.011 + 1.00794

Molecular Formula = C6H6

15 points!!<br> What does it mean when we say that water molecules break apart?
Mama L [17]

In the case of water, hydrogen bonds form between neighboring hydrogen and oxygen atoms of adjacent water molecules. ... However, because hydrogen bonds are weaker than covalent bonds, in liquid water they form, break, and reform easily. Thus, the exact number of hydrogen bonds formed per molecule varies.
