18) The enzyme poly-A polymerase is responsible for adding 3' poly-A tails to eukaryotic mRNAs. This enzyme... A. cuts the mRNA

after recognition of the cleavage/polyadenylation signal by CstF and CPSF proteins. B. polymerizes the tail using an RNA template that is part of the enzyme. C. isthesameaspolII D. normally adds about 2000 A nucleotides to the mRNA. E. uses A TP as a substrate.

Answer:

The correct answer is - option e. uses ATP as a substrate.

Explanation:

Poly-A Polymerase is an enzyme of the family of the DNA polymerase beta (polβ) family which catalyzes the reaction of the addition of AMP from ATP to the DNA polymerase beta (polβ) family.

ATP+RNA-3'OH--------->Pyrophosphate + RNApA-3'OH.

In this reaction, after the mRNA is cleaved, the Poly-A Polymerase template-independently adds about 200 A nucleotides (from ATP) one by one.

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

mutations can be either beneficial or harmful depending on the environment

Explanation:

Mutations can be defined as genetic changes in the nucleotide sequence of the genome of one organism. Mutations are usually neutral, but they can also be deleterious and/or beneficial depending on the environment. For example, recessive mutations that cause sickle-cell anemia, which is a recessive genetic disease that affects homo-zygous individuals, have shown to be advantageous for heterozygous individuals living in regions where malaria is endemic. Beneficial mutations can be selected by natural selection, thereby increasing their frequency in the population.

How many different ways does/could energy change form during its travels between the Sun and your stomach?
iris [78.8K]

Energy will take the path from sun to stomach as sun's energy to chemical energy followed by thermal and mechanical energy.

Explanation:

The energy of the sun is in the from of chemical energy which is the ultimate basis of life on earth . The process of photosynthesis occurs to form a chemical compound named glucose. The food ingested is in polymer complex forms as protein, carbohydrate, fats etc which is broken into monomers for absorption in intestine and stomach.

The dietary compound has energy stored in their bonds as chemical energy.

So, from sun human consume chemical energy which is stored in food.

The energy even if consumed by eating meat is also chemical energy which is stored as potential energy.

The breakdown of food or chemical energy into monomers leads to release of thermal energy or heat to maintain optimum body temperature.

Chemical energy also gets converted to mechanical energy which allows functioning of vital organs and movement of body.

Suppose the great, green galoofus lizard has 28 chromosomes in the nucleus of its unfertilized eggs. Predict how many chromosome
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer: 56

Explanation:

Because an unfertilized egg has half the chromosomes of a fertilized egg. The fertilized egg then splits, and continues splitting until the lizard is born. Always remember, whenever a question  talking about an unfertilized egg, it has half the chromosomes of a fertilized egg. One more side note, it doesn’t matter what body part you talk about. A skin cell will have the same number, and identical chromosomes compared to a heart cell. (So long as it’s the same organism, if it isn’t, but part of the same species, it will have the same number of chromosomes, but it may have a unique set of chromosomes). If you want me to go into detail, I can, just respond to this answer.

A tail like structures which allows certain unicellular organisms to move
yaroslaw [1]
The answer is flagella.

Flagella are tail-like structures which allow some unicellular organisms to move. Although their primary function is in locomotion, they can also serve as sensory organelles that are sensitive to chemicals or temperature of the environment. They can be found in all three domains - bacteria, archaea, and eukaryota:
- Bacterial flagella have a rotary motor at the base of each filament turning clockwise or counterclockwise
- Archaeal flagella look like bacterial flagella.
- Eukaryotic flagella are structurally complex cellular projections.
