Answer:
Transcription and RNA processing (splicing)
Explanation:
Although Howard is almost right, the DNA sequence does not precisely relate to the protein sequence. First of all, the DNA is transcribed to an primary mRNA molecule. Bur before the mRNA is ready to be translated into an amino acid sequence, it must be processed into a mature mRNA.
This includes adding a 3' poly A tail, and a 5' cap, and importantly for this question, splicing.
Splicing is the removal of non protein coding intermediate sequences called introns from the protein coding regions (exons) of a primary mRNA. This means that lots of the DNA sequence is not dictated by the final protein, as many of the intervening sequences have been removed by splicing.
Plants and fungi are usually filamentous to increase the surface area in which they uptake their food, and this is advantageous as they raise their surface area for sunlight in photosynthesis.
Conversely, animals are usually round to reduce surface area for loss of water and heat. Unlike plant and fungi, most of their food intake is through the mouth hence not affected by surface area.
I think the amount of ATP produced is best distinguishes glycolysis and the Krebs cycle from the electron transport chain.
A. It only has one parent, so the genetic information will be identical.
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option D. Venter's contribution to science is the invention of a synthetic cell. Craig Venter and his team have built the genome of a bacterium from scratch and incorporated it into a cell to make what they call the world's first synthetic life form.
