Genes provide information for building proteins. They don’t however directly create proteins. The production of proteins is completed through two processes: transcription and translation. Transcription and translation take the information in DNA and use it to produce proteins. Transcription uses a strand of DNA as a template to build a molecule called RNA. The RNA molecule is the link between DNA and the production of proteins. During translation, the RNA molecule created in the transcription process delivers information from the DNA to the protein building machines. Through transcription the sequence of bases of the DNA are transcribed into the reciprocal sequence of bases in a strand of RNA. Through transcription the information of the DNA molecule is passed onto the new strand of RNA which can then carry the information to where proteins are produced. RNA molecules used for this purpose are known as messenger RNA (mRNA). A gene is a particular segment of DNA. The sequence of bases in for a gene determines the sequence of nucleotides along an RNA molecule. Only one strand of a DNA double helix is transcribed for each gene. This strand is known as the ‘template strand’. The same template strand of DNA is used every time that particular gene is transcribed. The opposite strand of the DNA double helix may be transcribed for other genes. During translation, the information of the strand of RNA is ‘translated’ from RNA language into polypeptide language i.e. the sequence of nucleotides is translated into a sequence of amino acids.
A lot of informations but I hope this helps ;)
Answer:
buffers
Explanation:
Buffers neutralize acids and bases.
Answer:
e. is mostly asexual, with sexual as a second option.
Explanation:
Protist are unicelluar eukaryotic microorganims. Example include:
<u><em>Amoeba</em></u> <u><em>proteus</em></u>
<u><em>Euglena</em></u><em> </em><u><em>viridis</em></u>
Dinoflagellates, etc.
Among the species of Protists, each species exhibit a unique way of reproduction. Generally, in Protist there are two types of reproduction, these are asexual reproduction and sexual reproduction. With asexual reproduction being the primary mode of reproduction in most protists.
Protist reproduce asexual by binary fission or by budding.
Binary fission occurs when a single protist divides its nucleus and then divides itself into two separate organisms.
Budding occurs when a new organism grows from the body of the parent organism. The new organism may separate from the parent or remain attached, forming colonies.
They also reproduce sexually by conjugation.
Sexual reproduction by conjugation requires two parent organisms contributing to the genetic material of the offspring. The essence of conjugation is to produce a new offspring with a wider genetic variability i.e the offspring being genetically different from the parent organisms.
Answer:
I say the correct answer is the 3rd one.
Explanation:
Answer is number 3
Answer:
1. Intraspecific
2. speciation
3. fossil record
4. The fossil record provides empirical evidence for evolution because it shows that species now aren't the same as species that existed in the past and that small changes happen over time to create new species.
5. A geographic variation in the fossil record occurs when two similar organisms occupy the same time span in two different places. These organisms hold the same purpose within the overall ecology.
6. A more detailed fossil record is preferable for supporting evolution because it allows for the instances of gradual change to be recorded and placed into broader speciation events.
7. Fossils provide a great many intermediaries that connect past species with their living descendants.
8. Intraspecific competition is competition that occurs within species. This is the competition that drives natural selection.
