The answer is true. During translation of mRNA, the nucleotides are read by the translation unit (ribosome and trna) in sequences of three (3). These sequences are referred to as codons. Codons code for amino acids. Some codons are start of stop codons meaning they initiate or terminate translation. Additionally, more that one codon could code for one amino acid.
Answer:
A. chromosomes
Explanation:
Chromosomes are structures found in the center (nucleus) of cells that carry long pieces of DNA. DNA is the material that contains genes and is the building block of the human body.
Chromosomes come in pairs. Normally, each cell in the human body has 23 pairs of chromosomes (46 chromosomes in all), of which half comes from the mother and half from the father.
Answer:
That enhances the sensitivity of cancerous tumor cells toward the applied radiation dose.
Explanation:
It is a known fact that tumor cells are very hard to treat so, to increase their sensitivity toward radiation, the body of the patient is treated with special kind of cytotoxic drugs that enhance the sensitivity or exposure of those cancerous cells toward radiation and made them vulnerable. These drugs are applied to modern approaches because of their extensive action toward tumor cells.
For him they were just discrete physical units of inheritance. Johanson coined the term "gene" and people started calling them genes. Today for us these factors are parts of DNA, the base sequences that carry the biological information to determine a trait. Mendel factors are alleles of genes.
