Because there are three different possible reading frames in a messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule, most mRNAs can be translated in a

Dmitry [639]3 years ago

Answer:

False

Explanation:

In the genetic code, each triplet of nucleotides (i.e., each codon) determines one specific amino acid or one-stop codon. The genetic code is not overlapping, which means that the same letter in the genetic code (nucleotide) cannot be used for two different codons. There are 64 possible combinations of triplets of nucleotides, 61 of them determine amino acids, while three triplets determine stop codons (UAG, UAA, and UGA) that indicate the termination of translation. Moreover, the genetic code is also degenerate, which means that one amino acid can be coded by more than one codon.

What is cyclin dependent kinase?​
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

please mark as brainliest answer as it will also give you 3 points

Explanation:

Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are the families of protein kinases first discovered for their role in regulating the cell cycle. They are also involved in regulating transcription, mRNA processing, and the differentiation of nerve cells.[1] They are present in all known eukaryotes, and their regulatory function in the cell cycle has been evolutionarily conserved. In fact, yeast cells can proliferate normally when their CDK gene has been replaced with the homologous human gene.[1][2] CDKs are relatively small proteins, with molecular weights ranging from 34 to 40 kDa, and contain little more than the kinase domain.[1] By definition, a CDK binds a regulatory protein called a cyclin. Without cyclin, CDK has little kinase activity; only the cyclin-CDK complex is an active kinase but its activity can be typically further modulated by phosphorylation and other binding proteins, like p27. CDKs phosphorylate their substrates on serines and threonines, so they are serine-threonine kinases.[1] The consensus sequence for the phosphorylation site in the amino acid sequence of a CDK substrate is [S/T*]PX[K/R], where S/T* is the phosphorylated serine or threonine, P is proline, X is any amino acid, K is lysine, and R is arginine.[1]

What are some similarities and between Gigantopithecus and humans?
Basile [38]

Answer:

Gigantopithecus could stand on its hind legs, and the known jaws of Gigantopithecus widen towards the rear and proposed that this widening occurred to allow for the housing of a trachea‭ (‬the‭ ‘‬windpipe‭’ ‬that connects the lungs to the mouth opening‭) ‬when the skull was placed directly in top of the head like a human and not carried forward like a great ape.‭

Both renewable and nonrenewable resources are used within our society. How do the uses of nonrenewable resources compare to the
natima [27]
I would say that the most correct statement is the following one:
Certain types of renewable energy can be used for as many applications as certain types of nonrenewable resources.

Let's take for example the energy from solar panels (the renewable energy source) and the energy from burning fossil fuels: this energy can be used in the same situations!

A child's ability to place round pegs in round holes requires which type of motor skills?
Katyanochek1 [597]
The answer is Fine Motor Skills

The child is using his wrists, hands and fingers in coordinated movements to place the pegs in the holes which do not require gross motor skills. Unlike fine motor skills that encompass small movements, gross motor skills involve a coordinative movement of more substantial body parts such as legs, arms, and the body.
