Answer:

D) Because it can share four electrons in covalent bond.

Explanation:

The correct option is Option D.

Because it can share four electrons in covalent bond.

All other are incorrect because,

A = it can share four electrons in ionic bond.

Carbon share its electron and form covalent bond. It can not form ionic bond.

B = Because it can share six electrons inmetallic bond.

It is also incorrect because metallic bond is  only formed by the metals and also there are only 4 valance electrons in carbon not six.

Option C = Because it can share four electrons in hydrogen bonds.

It is also incorrect because carbon can not form hydrogen bonds.

Which step in translation initiation is unique to eukaryotes? which step in translation initiation is unique to eukaryotes? bind
Hitman42 [59]
The step in translation initiation that is unique to the eukaryotes is:

<span>formation of the preinitiation complex ribosome assembly
</span>
Here are the processes involved in the Translation Initiation of Eukaryotes

1) 5'cap is used to position the mRNA on the 40S ribosomal subunit
2) ribosome scans down the mRNA looking for an AUG.
3) There is an initiator methionine-tRNA
4) The initiating AUG codon is often within a consensus sequence called the Kozak sequence (5'-ACCAUGG-3')
5) After binding the cap, ribosomes scan down the mRNA until the Kozak sequence is reached and translation begins
<span>6)The poly (A) tail and 5'-cap binding proteins help the initiation complex form
</span>
