Answer:
Letter E - exons are cut from the strand and removed
Explanation:
Letter A and B are incorrect because the poly-A tail and guanine cap are added to the 3’ and 5’ end respectively. They aid in translation of the mRNA, while serving as protection. The poly-A tail is repeated adenine nucleotides, while the guanine cap is a modified guanine nucleotide.
Letter C is incorrect because alternative splicing is one mechanism for generating variation, and is thought to be one of the reasons for why humans have smaller genomes than other organisms and still maintain high complexity. Alternative splicing is incredibly important because it produces more than one transcript from a pre-mRNA.
Letter D is incorrect because introns are the non coding portions of the mRNA. They are excised to make a smaller mRNA transcript, and one that contains all the protein genes.
This letter E is the correct answer, because exons are the coding portions of the mRNA, and are not excised during RNA processing.
Hope that helped! If I made a mistake, please let me know.
Answer:
1. Fats contain mostly C-H bonds, it has less oxygen therefore making it a high energy compound
2. mRNA plays a vital role in protein synthesis. It's a single stranded RNA molecule that contains genetic information that can be taken outside the nucleus (unlike DNA which cannot leave the nucleus). Its created during transcrption, and is used during translation to create proteins
3. (Look at image)
No genes make up chromosomes. Chromosomes contain DNA sequences and specific sequences aka genes make specific traits.
Answer:
- A, B, C and D are: elements or molecules
- A and B are: reactants
- C and D are: products
Explanation:
The expression "A + B <--> C + D" represents a chemical equation. A chemical equation represents the "mixture" of molecules or elements that will react and form other molecules and elements, so we can say that A, B, C and D represent molecules or elements.
But not only that. In a chemical equation, the elements and molecules that are before the symbol "<-->" represent the reagents in the equation. Therefore, A and B are the reagents. The elements or molecules found after the symbol "<-->" are the products of the reaction. Therefore, C and D are the products.
