What is the amino acid sequence for the mRNA strand CACCCAUGGUGA?

Biology

Answer:

Histidine- Proline- Tryptophan- Stop codon

Explanation:

The mRNA strand in the question is produced as a result of a process called TRANSCRIPTION. However, the mRNA transcript is further used to synthesize an amino acid sequence in a process called TRANSLATION. The mRNA sequence is read in a group of three nucleotide bases called CODON.

Each codon specifies an amino acid which is represented in the GENETIC CODE. In this case, a sequence of mRNA strand is given as: CACCCAUGGUGA

The following codons in the sequence specify the following amino acid:

CAC - Histidine

CCA - Proline

UGG - Tryptophan

UGA - Stop codon

Hence, the amino acid sequence encoded by the given mRNA strand is Histidine- Proline- Tryptophan- Stop codon.

N.B: After a stop codon (UGA, UAA, UAG) is encountered, the translation process stops.

Why do farmers want their plants to do as much photosynthesis as possible?
Mazyrski [523]
Farmers want their plants to photosynthesise as much as possible in order to increase their crop rate.

Without enough light, a plant cannot photosynthesise very quickly, even if there is plenty of water and carbon dioxide. Increasing the light intensity will boost the speed of photosynthesis.

Sometimes photosynthesis is limited by the concentration of carbon dioxide in the air. Even if there is plenty of light, a plant cannot photosynthesise if there is insufficient carbon dioxide.

If it gets too cold, the rate of photosynthesis will decrease. Plants cannot photosynthesise if it gets too hot.

Farmers can use their knowledge of these limiting factors to increase crop growth in greenhouses. They may use artificial light so that photosynthesis can continue beyond daylight hours, or in a higher-than-normal light intensity. The use of paraffin lamps inside a greenhouse increases the rate of photosynthesis because the burning paraffin produces carbon dioxide, and heat too.
