Mitosis is the process in which one single cell divides into 2 cells. mitosis is used for cell replacement of worn-out cells

meiosis produces reproductive cells. a parent cell will split into 2 or more cells during this process

Why does each offspring get 2 alleles for a trait?

balu736 [363]

During meiosis, chromosome pairs are split apart and distributed into cells called gametes. Each gamete contains a single copy of every chromosome, and each chromosome contains one allele for every gene. Therefore, each allele for a given gene is packaged into a separate gamete.

What causes a substance’s identity to change during a chemical change?

alisha [4.7K]

Chemical changes occur when bonds are broken and/or formed between molecules or atoms. This means that one substance with a certain set of properties (such as melting point, color, taste, etc) is turned into a different substance with different properties. ... One good example of a chemical change is burning a candle.

How does the eukaryotic initiation complex locate the correct start codon?

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-C

Explanation:

The eukaryotic translation takes place in three steps that are initiation, elongation and termination.

During the initiation process, the amino-acyl tRNA carrying the methionine amino acid binds the small ribosomal subunit. This pre-initiation complex of small subunit and tRNA now gets attached to 5ʹ UTR and starts scanning mRNA to find start codon -AUG.

The pre-initiation complex when finds the start codon attaches the large subunit of ribosome and form initiation complex. The formation of the initiation complex begins the process of translation.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.
