After being produced, ________ provides the blueprint for assembling proteins

Biology

The mRNA molecule is the blueprint for protein assembly in the processes described in the central dogma of molecular biology.
The process of translating the information in DNA to proteins happens in three steps.
Firstly, the DNA molecule replicates itself. 
After that one DNA strand (DNA is a double-stranded molecule)  transcribes itself into one-stranded messenger RNA (mRNA).
The information is held in the sequence of the nucleotides (Adenine, Cytosine, Guanine, Thymine) and it is read in triplets. So each mRNA is made from a sequence of nucleotides copied from the DNA, that is read in triplets.
Each triplet is holding the information about a specific amino-acid carried by transporter RNA (tRNA).
Proteins are made in the ribosomes in the process of translation, where the sequence on the mRNA is being read and translated into a sequence of amino acids.

Verdadero o falso mediante el genotipo podemos determinar si existen dominancia en una característica
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Verdadero

Explanation:

Sabemos que los caracteres dependen de los genes. Y los genes pueden presentarse en forma de alelos dominantes, o alelos recesivos. La expresión de los alelos recesivos son enmascarados o escondidos por el alelo dominante. Es decir, que si ambos alelos se encuentran juntos en un heterocigota, solo el alelo dominante se expresará.

Entonces el alelo dominante expresa la característica que resulta dominante, mientras que el alelo recesivo expresa la característica recesiva.

Genotipo:

  • Homocigota dominante ----> Expresa caracter dominante (Solo el alelo dominante esta presente)
  • Heterocigota -------------------> Expresa el caracter dominante (Ambos alelos estan presentes, pero el dominante es quien se expresa)
  • Homocigota recesivo --------> Expresa el caracter recesivo (solo alelos recesivos estan presentes)

Por ejemplo, si tenemos dos fenotipos rojo y amarillo, y sabemos que el color esta codificado por un gen dialelico llamado M. También supongamos que no sabemos qué alelo expresa qué color. Teniendo solo estos datos, no podemos decir si el rojo es el color dominante o si el amarillo lo es.

Sin embargo, si tenemos los siguientes genotipos acompañando esta información:

  • MM--> Amarillo
  • Mm--> Amarillo
  • mm --> Rojo

Recién ahora podemos deducir que el caracter dominante es el amarillo.

A postitivly charged atom has? A.Lost electrons B. Lost protons C.Gained electrons D.Gained protons
Kipish [7]

Not to be too picky, but the question ought to say a positively charge ion rather than atom.

I will assume that is what you mean. An ion, using ordinary means, will be positive if it loses electrons (which are negative).

An ion can never gain protons. Left alone, the nucleus will remain unchanged for the rest of eternity. D is wrong.

C is wrong. If electrons are gained, the ion will go negative.

B is wrong for the same reason D is. An ion can't gain protons and it can't lose them.

A is the answer.

Vesna [10]

Generally, these vacuoles acquire 80% of the cell space. Vacuole is an important organelle present in the cells of plants, animals, protists, fungi and bacteria. Apart from water, vacuoles also contains different kinds of organic/inorganic molecules, solid materials and enzymes.

In the epinephrine pathway, an inhibitor of phosphodiesterase activity would have which of the following effects? A. block the a
Artemon [7]

Answer: C). prolong the effect of epinephrine by maintaining elevated cAMP levels in the cytoplasm

Explanation: In the epinephrine pathway, binding of epinephrine to its receptor triggers a conformational change in the receptor and the interaction of the receptor with its associated Gs protein. This interaction causes the replacement of GDP bound to Gs protein with GTP thus activating the Gs protein. The activation of the Gs protein causes the alpha subunit of the Gs protein to dissociate and move to adenylyl cyclase, another membrane protein in the pathway. The association of the alpha subunit of the Gs protein with adenylyl cyclase activates adenylyl cyclase which in turn catalyzes the synthesis of cyclic AMP (cAMP) a second messenger. cAMP is quickly degraded to 5'-AMP by an enzyme phosphodiesterase. Inhibition of the activity of phosphodiesterase will increase the half life and the cytoplasmic level of cAMP thus potentiating the action of epinephrine.
