What type of molecule is produced by the ribosome?
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The correct answer is - C. protein.

Explanation:

Ribosomes are biological molecules that are made up of RNA and proteins. These molecules produce protein molecules with the help of mRNA by the process of translation. These molecules are called the factory of protein or protein synthesis site.

The RNA that is present in these molecules is ribosomal RNA. These are attached to the other cell organelles called endoplasmic reticulum used the protein to check and modify them.

The chemical equation shown represents photosynthesis.
Fudgin [204]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

It combines with water to form glucose.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Photosynthesis is a process by which green plants make their own food by using solar energy from the sun, together with water and carbon dioxide.
  • Carbon dioxide, water and light are all needed for photosynthesis to take place. During the process solar energy from the sun is used to convert carbon dioxide and water into the simple sugar glucose.
  • <em><u>Substance A is the above question represent carbon dioxide which combines with water in presence of light to form simple sugars and oxygen gas.</u></em>
  • The equation for the reaction is;

6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy = C6H12O6 + 6O2.

Which of these are true regarding eukaryotes? (choose all that apply)
OleMash [197]

Answer:

b. During replication there is both a leading strand and a lagging strand .

c. Each replication bubble has two replication forks.

Explanation:

Eukaryotic chromosomes have multiple origins of replication to replicate the long chromosomes at a higher rate.

The two DNA strands have opposite polarity, that is, 5' end of the one DNA strand is present opposite to the 3' end of the other DNA strand. DNA replication occurs only in 5' to 3' direction and the direction of the movement of the replication fork is also 5' to 3' direction.

To allow the DNA replication in 5' to 3' direction on both strands, one strand is replicated discontinuously in the direction opposite to the movement of the replication fork.

The discontinuously replicated strand is lagging strand while the other one is the leading strand.

DNA replication in eukaryotes occurs bidirectionally as two replication forks are formed at each replication bubble, one at each end of the replication bubble.

The presence of multiple origins of replication and the bidirectional process allows the replication of large eukaryotic DNA at a considerable fast speed.
