Answer:

The answer is A.allele

Explanation:

An allele is a variant form of a gene. Some genes have a variety of different forms, which are located at the same position, or genetic locus, on a chromosome. Humans are called diploid organisms because they have two alleles at each genetic locus, with one allele inherited from each parent.

When both the P and A site are occupied and a third tRNA anticodon comes to the ribosome, what happens to the first anticodon?
Rasek [7]

Answer:

The first anticodon leaves the ribosome through the E-site

Explanation:

Translation is the second stage of gene expression. It occurs in the ribosomes (organnelles of protein synthesis) where amino acid sequence is synthesized using a mRNA template. The tRNA (transfer RNA) is responsible for reading the mRNA codon using its ANTICODON, which is complementary to the mRNA codon.

The tRNA reads the mRNA codon and carries the amino acid that corresponds what it reads. tRNA has three binding sites on the ribosome; A-site, P-site and E-site. A tRNA molecule with the complementary anticodon binds to the codon on the P-site, and carries its corresponding amino acid. Another tRNA with complementary anticodon occupies the A-site, carrying the corresponding amino acid again.

Once both sites are occupied, the tRNA on the P-site transfers its amino acid to the one on the A-site to form a peptide bond. This causes the ribosome to shift the tRNA on the P-site, allowing the one on the A-site to be free. When this happens, the anticodon of the first tRNA on the P-site leaves the ribosome via the E-site in order to bind to another complementary mRNA codon and continue the translation process.

andrey2020 [161]
<span>mtDNA analysis is the best DNA technology to use. In DNA fingerprinting scientists run a gel electrophoresis of the subject's DNA in order to establish the banding patterns of the DNA fragments. People will always share half of their DNA with a parent. SO half of an individual's banding pattern will match half of their parent's DNA banding pattern. If someone is missing is found then scientists can compare the DNA fingerprint or banding patterns to see what the likelihood is of them being related.</span>
