The double helix is a description of the molecular shape of a double-stranded DNA molecule. In 1953, Francis Crick and James Watson first described the molecular structure of DNA, which they called a "double helix," in the journal Nature.
Answer:
D. MicroRNA-1/206 targets c-Met mRNA for destruction via RISC.
Explanation:
microRNA's are non-coding RNA's, that is, they are not translated to proteins. MicroRNA-1/206 leads to gene silencing by 'tagging' the c-Met mRNA for cleavage by RISC proteins.
RISC: RNA-induced silencing complex is a ribonucleoprotein complex that leads to the incorporation of a single strand of micro RNA (or siRNA) that will bind to the targeted mRNA. The microRNA or siRNA strand will tag the targeted RNA for cleavage by proteins from the ribonucleoprotein. No translation will occur.
Answer:
Proximal convoluted tubule
Explanation:
The major work of re-absorption is carried out in nephron by the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT). The PCT re-absorbs all the essential nutrients such as amino acid, potassium, glucose etc. and water driven by passive transfer based on concentration gradient. Along with gradient, pH of the urine also affects the re-absorption. Based on the pH of the urine (basic or acid), re-absorption of ionized acid increases or decreases.
D, because they produce the food for the consumers, like grass.
Gametes, or sperm and egg cells are both haploid cells, meaning that they have half the amount of chromosomes that regular body cells do, meaning that the sperm cell of this bird would have 32 chromosomes.
