An mRNA strand is 108 nucleotides long. The maximum number
of amino acids that could form in the resultant polypeptide chain is

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

36 amino acids

Explanation:

A messenger RNA (mRNA) is a type of RNA formed during transcription of DNA. mRNA contains nucleotide bases that are read in a group of three i.e. triplet called CODON. Each codon specifies a particular amino acid when translated.

Hence, in an mRNA strand that is 108 nucleotides long. This mRNA sequence will be read in three's with each three nucleotide corresponding to one amino acid. Hence, to get the maximum number of amino acids that could form in the resultant polypeptide chain, we divide as follows:

108 bases ÷ 3 bases (codon)

= 36 amino acids

Is a cell membrane more like a brick wall or a chain-link fence? Why?

Answers

Answer:chain-link fence

Explanation:a cell membrane is partial permeable which means that it lets some substances through but not other.

Answer:

Chain-link fence

Explanation:

Cell membranes are barriers that decide which molecules enter and exit the cell, and how much of them come in. So things are able to pass through them.

If it were a brick wall, it would not let anything pass through.

So it is more like a chain-link fence, but with more control over what passes through it.

if the prey population increases, the predator population will__

a.) increase
b.) decrease

Answers

Answer:

increase

Explanation:

The predator population will increase if the prey population increase because the predators will have more food. Hope I helped! Have a great day! ;)

Answer:

a) increase.

Explanation:

As the prey population increases, there is more food for predators. So, after a slight lag, the predator population increases as well. As the number of predators increases, more prey are captured. As a result, the prey population starts to decrease.

Which of the following describes a benefit of
biodiversity to an ecosystem?

A. decreases the energy flow through the ecosystem

B. increases the maximum number of trophic levels

C. increases the maximum biomass of the ecosystem

D. allows the ecosystem to withstand environmental changes

Answers

Answer:

D. allows the ecosystem to withstand environmental changes

Explanation:

One very significant importance of biodiversity is that it allows the ecosystem to withstand changes in the environment.

Biodiversity is the variation of life forms on the earth.

Due to instability in the ecosystem as a result of natural and human induced factors, a highly biodiverse system is able to tolerate these inconsistencies. A not so biodiverse system would crumble under environmental changes they cannot withstand.

In plant cells, osmotic pressure can cause changes in the size of the central vacuole, which shrinks or swells as water moves into or out of the cell.

Explanation:

Hope this helped, Have a Great Day/Night!!

Answer:

Function of the Central Vacuole

Turgor pressure changes in a cell due to osmosis, which is the diffusion of water into or out of the cell. When a plant cell is in a hypotonic solution, there is a higher concentration of water molecules outside the cell than inside, and water will flow into the cell.

Answer:

A gene is a segment of DNA which codes for a specific trait​.

Explanation:

Cellular development, replication, and cell repair are controlled by genetic information stored within DNA molecules. The long-chain, helical macromolecules of these deoxyribonucleic acids, are constructed from complex sequences of covalently bonded monomers called nucleotides.  

Genes, can span several nucleotides and even multiple chromosomes. They are encoded through the processes of transcription, translation to become proteins, that determine physical characteristics or phenotypes.

Change TCA-GAT from DNA into mRNA

Answers

Answer:

AGU-CUA

Explanation:

An mRNA sequence is made using a DNA sequence as a template. The sequence is dictated by complementary base pairing.

DNA uses the bases A, T, C and G. A is complementary to T and G is complementary to C.

RNA uses the bases A, U, C and G. A is complementary to U and G is complementary to C.

When transcribing DNA to RNA:

C is paired with GG is paired with CA is paired with UT is paired with A

Therefore, TCA-GAT  is transcribed to AGU-CUA

Describe how traits are inherited through traits sexual Reproductions

WILL MARK AND 5 STARS

Answers

Answer: sexual reproduction is the union of male and female gametes to form a fertilized egg, or zygote. The resulting offspring inherit one half of their traits from each parent. The process where haploid sex cells are created from diploid parents is called meiosis, and it occurs only in the reproductive organs.

Explanation:

i have advanced so this is what i got right

Answer: In sexually reproducing organisms, each parent contributes half of the genes acquired (at random) by the offspring. Individuals have two of each chromosome and hence two alleles of each gene, one acquired from each parent. These versions may be identical or may differ from each other.
