Answer:

A) The cornea is the transparent outer covering of the eye,The lens is a curved structure in the eye that that bends light and focuses it for the retina to help you see images clearly.The lens works together with the cornea to focus light correctly on the retina. When light hits the retina (a light-sensitive layer of tissue at the back of the eye), special cells called photoreceptors turn the light into electrical signals.

B)The iris is the part of the eye that makes up your eye color. A circular muscle with a hole in the middle.The iris controls the amount of light that enters the eye by opening and closing the pupil. The iris uses muscles to change the size of the pupil. These muscles can control the amount of light entering the eye by making the pupil larger or smaller.

C)Rod cells are highly sensitive to light and function in nightvision, whereas cone cells are capable of detecting a wide spectrum of light photons and are responsible for colour vision.

Note - hope this is accurate :)

Compare the three types of RNA. Note significant similarities and differences. Use the table below to record your observations.
Alchen [17]

Answer: (Structure) mRNA: always single stranded, rRNA: single stranded, twisted upon itself in some regions, tRNA: cloverleaf-like structure

(Function) mRNA: carries the information in the DNA to the ribosomes where it is translated into amino acids of proteins, rRNA: helps assemble tRNA, mRNA, and amino acids to form the polypeptide chain during protein synthesis, tRNA: acts as an adaptor molecule, which identifies correct amino acids corresponding to the anticodon present on it

Put the following events in the correct order:
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

c. Transcription of one DNA strand results in mRNA, which is a complementary copy of the information in the DNA.

a. The mRNA leaves the nucleus and goes to a ribosome open choices for ranking.

b. The building blocks of proteins, are carried to the ribosome by tRNAsAmino acids.

The process of deoxyribonucleic acod starts with replication to transcription and translation.

Replication involves the formation of a complementary base from a old or template DNA Strand this then serve as a template for transcription.

transcription involves the coping of information on the DNA to an intermediate mRNA ( messanger ribonucleic acid) in the nucleus which then move from the nucleus to ribosome in the cytoplasm where translation occurs.

Translation is the conversion of the information on the mRNA to an amino acid with the help of enzyme transferse ribonucleic acid(tRNA).

Hence the arrangement is from C ---- A-----B.
