Answer:

The correct answer is - a. Nuclease activity and b. DNA methylaseDNA methylase.

Explanation:

The binding of the miRNA with the complementary DNA or mRNA sequence by either methylation of DNA, or by nuclease activity of the proteins, by the help of RISC complex as it brought them together In piRISCs complex. This complex goes and binds to the nucleotides to cause the silencing of the mRNA or the DNA sequence.

Thus, the correct answer is - a. Nuclease activity and b. DNA methylaseDNA methylase.

What are marine sponges compossed of
OleMash [197]
Sponges are similar to other animals in that they are multicellular, heterotrophic, lack cell walls and produce sperm cells. Unlike other animals, they lack true tissues and organs, and have no body symmetry. The shapes of their bodies are adapted for maximal efficiency of water flow through the central cavity, where it deposits nutrients, and leaves through a hole called the osculum. Many sponges have internal skeletons of spongin and/or spicules of calcium carbonate or silicon dioxide. All sponges are sessile aquatic animals. Although there are freshwater species, the great majority are marine (salt water) species, ranging from tidal zones to depths exceeding 8,800 m (5.5 mi).
