What is the difference between rRNA, tRNA, mRNA and codon,anticodon
Eddi Din [679]
MRNA, is used to transcript DNA codes from DNA molecules and then later exits the nucleus via nuclear pore, then moves to the ribosome. Then, tRNA is activated to bring specific amino acid to the ribosome for translation. Ribosome, which is the site of synthesis of proteins, is composed of rRNA and ribosomal proteins.
A codon is a three-base sequence (three nitrogen bases in a row) on mRNA. An anticodon is a three-base sequence on tRNA. It matches the codon.

A template dna strand contains the sequence 3'-atgctgac-5'. the corresponding sequence in the rna transcript is:
V125BC [204]
The corresponding sequence in the RNA transcript is 5'-UACGACUG-3' . One of the differences between DNA and RNA is the fact that the RNA contains the base uracil instead of thyamine. The base pairing occurs between A and T, and G and C. DNA undergoes the process of transcription in the nucleus to generate RNA, which then undergoes translation (for mRNA) in the cytoplasm to yield proteins.

What type of membrane provides lubrication to the pleural, pericardial, and peritoneal cavities?
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer;

-Serous membrane

Explanation;

-Serous membranes are thin membranes that lines the internal body cavities and organs such as the heart, lungs, and abdominal cavity. The thin membrane is made up of mesothelium tissue which originates from the mesoderm.

-These membranes consists of a single layer of flattened mesothelial cells applied to the surface of a thin layer of collagenous tissue that attaches to underlying endothoracic/transversalis fascia. They function to preclude adhesions among organs, thereby allowing organs to move freely relative to one another.
