Answer:

The population of peppered moths thrived, because they camouflaged with the bark of the trees, thereby they were not easily seen by predators. Black moths were easily seen by predators and they were eaten as a result. Because the black moths did not survive, they were unable to reproduce offspring with those traits. However, peppered moths were able to reproduce offspring that were also peppered. During the industrial revolution, the colour of the bark darkened. This meant the peppered moths were easily seen by predators, so they were eaten. Black moths camouflaged with the bark, so now they weren't easily seen by predators. Now that the black moths survived, they could reproduce more black moths. But peppered moths weren't able to reproduce more peppered moths because most didn't survive. This is an example of how an abiotic factor, such as bark can affect a population of a species. Because the bark influenced the survival of the moths, some moths with the desirable traits survived, and others with the undesirable traits died.

il63 [147K]

Neither of those was developed to prevent global warming. In both cases, that turned out to be one of the many potential positive results if the technology were widely accepted and implemented.

How are the protists with flagella similar to the protists with cilia?

skelet666 [1.2K]

The protists with flagella; move by beating their long whip like structures called flagella. They can have one or more flagella that help them move. Many of these type of protists live in the bodies of other organisms.
On the other hand, protists with cilia; move by beating these tiny hair-like structures (cilia). The cilia act as tiny oars that allows the protist to move through its watery environment. The cilia also help the protists capture food particles. Therefore; both are able to move food particles towards themselves using the respective structures.

Need a hypothesis for “How are proteins built from RNA”

Dima020 [189]

Hi!

Hypothesis:

<em>Proteins are built from the translation of messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules</em>

RNA, or ribonucleic acid, is a structure that is similar to DNA, except that it exists as a single strand, consists of a ribose sugar instead of a deoxyribose sugar and has the base uracil (U) instead of thyamine (T).

RNA is generated through transcription of the DNA molecule, resulting in a <em>complementary </em>molecule of the template DNA strand. For instance, if the sequence of the DNA was:

ATGCGCAGTTATTGCGAT

The corresponding RNA sequence will be:

UACGCGUCAAUAACGCUA <em>(complementary with U instead of T)</em>

<h3><u>From RNA to Protein</u></h3>

The RNA molecule in our case is known as the mRNA. After transcription the mRNA molecule is transported to the cytoplasm, where a ribosome binds to it for another molecule to translate the sequence. This translation is mediated by an RNA molecule known as the tRNA molecule which enters the ribosome to catalyze the reaction.

These molecules identify a sequence of 3 bases (codon) and for specific codon sequences, the tRNA allocates specific amino acid. For instance, for the codon <em>UCA</em>, the tRNA will allocate a <em>Serine residue.</em>

This translation process starts at specific three base sequences, known as start codons, and terminates at specific three base sequences known as stop codons.

In this manner, a sequence of amino acids respective to the mRNA codon sequence is synthesized, and as we identify proteins as chains of amino acids that are covalently linked together through peptide bonds, we can clearly see that proteins are built directly from RNA, and indirectly from DNA.

Hope this helps!
