Enzymes perform the critical task of lowering a reaction's activation energy—that is, the amount of energy that must be put in for the reaction to begin

1.What is a codon? What does it tell the ribosome?

Sophie [7]

Answer:

1. A codon is a triplet of nucleotides that codes for an amino acid. This amino acid is transported by the tRNA which possesses a complementary anticodon and it gets added to the nascent protein.

2. Amino acids are organic compounds that contain amino (–NH2) and carboxyl (–COOH) functional groups, along with a side chain (R group) specific to each amino acid.

3. the onset of protein production is signaled by the AUG codon which encodes methionine. the stop to the synthesis is given instead by the stop codons (UAA, UAG, UGA)

4. Met-Val-Thr-Ser-Arg-Leu-Stop

What is Electron Transport Chain and what happens in that stage of cellular respiration?

irakobra [83]

The electron transport chain (ETC) is the final step of cellular respiration and takes place in the mitochondrion.

The final step in cellular respiration is the electron transport chain. This is sometimes abbreviated as ETC. ETC needs oxygen, which means aerobic process. It occurs at the edges of the inner lining of mitochondria. These handles are called cristae.
