Which of the following is the amino acid that appears at the N-terminus of all newly translated prokaryotic and eukaryotic polyp
Elis [28]

Answer:

The correct answer is option second - methionine.

Explanation:

During translation, the initiator tRNA binds with a smaller subunit of the ribosome and this assembly bind to the start codon AUG at mRNA molecule in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes and then large subunit bind to this assembly and start polypeptide chain.

So, the first codon is AUG which is start codon and code for methionine in eukaryotes and fMeth in prokaryotes at newly translated prokaryotic and eukaryotic polypeptides at the N- terminus.

Thus, the correct answer is option second - methionine.

How are photosynthesis and respiration related?
malfutka [58]

They have opposite equations

Photosynthesis : carbon dioxide + water —> glucose + oxygen + water. A balanced chemical equation for the process can be written as 6CO2 + 6H2O —> C6H12O6 + 6O2

Respiration : oxygen and glucose, and produces carbon dioxide, water, and energy. The chemical equation is C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O (glucose + oxygen -> carbon dioxide + water)
