Answer:

1.  there needs to be warm ocean water and moist, humid air in the region. When humid air is flowing upward at a zone of low pressure over warm ocean water, the water is released from the air as creating the clouds of the storm. As it rises, the air in a hurricane rotates.

2. Hurricanes are classified using the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale — a 1 to 5 rating that's based on maximum sustained wind speed, according to the National Hurricane Center.

3. When a hurricane strikes a coastal area, it brings a number of serious hazards. These hazards include heavy rains, high winds, a storm surge, and even tornadoes. Storm surge pushes seawater on shore during a hurricane, flooding towns near the coast. Heavy rains cause flooding in inland places as well.

MicroRNA (miRNA) production occurs in several steps. Arrange the statements describing the production and function of miRNAs in
zmey [24]

Answer:

The miRNAs act as post-transcriptional silencers, as they are similar to specific mRNAs and regulate their stability and translation. They are small endogenous non-coding ribonucleic acid (RNA) molecules, with about 22 nucleotides, which act as regulators of gene expression in plants and animals, at the post-transcriptional level through the cleavage of a target messenger RNA (mRNA) or repression of translation.

In general, most miRNA genes are transcribed by RNA polymerase II in the nucleus in primary miRNAs (pri-miRNAs). Individually, a pri-miRNA can produce a single miRNA or contain groups of two or more miRNAs that are processed from a common primary transcript. These long pri-miRNA are cleaved by a complex comprising the double-stranded RNAse III enzyme (DROSHA) and its essential cofactor, the binding protein DGCR8 (DiGeorge Syndrome Critical Region 8 protein) in mammals. DROSHA contains two domains of RNAse III, each of which cleaves a strand of the RNA resulting in the precursor microRNA (pre-miRNA) with about 70 base pairs, which contains a double-stranded stretch and a single-stranded loop, forming a structure in clamp. The pre-miRNA is exported to the cytoplasm by the protein exportin-5 (XPO-5), where it is cleaved by DICER1, an RNAse III that assesses the 3 'and 5' ends of the pre-miRNA, generating a mature miRNA with about 22 nucleotides. The processing of pre-miRNA by Dicer promotes the unfolding of the RNA duplex in the form of a clamp. The position in the formation of the clamp can also influence the choice of tape.
