Total nucleic acids are extracted from a culture of yeast cells and are then mixed with resin beads to which the polynucleotide

5'-TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT-3'
has been covalently attached. After a short incubation, the beads are then extracted from the mixture. When you analyse the cellular nucleic acids that have stuck to the beads, what will be most abundant?
mRNA because it is the only type of RNA that is polyadenylated and the poly (A) tail would be able to base pair with the strands of poly(T) on the beads and thus stick to them. DNA would not be found in the sample, as the poly (A) tail is not encoded int he DNA and long runs of T are rare in DNA.

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

(a)DNA (b)tRNA (c)rRNA (d)mRNA

Answer:

Option-mRNA

Explanation:

The mRNA is synthesized from the DNA and which is also a type of nucleic acid. When the nucleic acid is extracted from the yeasts and then mixed with the resin beads to which the polynucleotide with thymine base oar is attached.

The mRNA will bind to the resin bead as the mRNA after synthesis undergoes modification and attaches poly A tail to the end of the mRNA at 3' end.

This poly-A tail has adenine which easily binds to the thymine and thus mRNA easily attaches to the resin bead.

Thus, mRNA is correct.

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

trocophore larva

Explanation:

The trocophore larva is a marine planktonic larvae. The mollusca, annelida, and nemerteans shows trocophore as larval stage.

The trocophore larva shows similarities with invertebrates group of organisms. This similarities provide evidence that bilateral symmetry organisms evolved from radial symmetry. The larva represents a transitional stage in ctenophore emergence. There are close similarities in trocophore larva and annelid larva (echinoderm). Thus, a close evolutionary relationship between annelids and mollusks is suggested by the presence of a <u>trocophore </u>larva in both phyla as well as by molecular sequence comparisons.

Cells a and b are the same size and shape, but cell a is metabolically quiet and cell b is actively consuming oxygen. oxygen wil
Eddi Din [679]

Oxygen will diffuse more quickly into cell B because the diffusion gradient there is steeper.  

The concentration gradient depicts the slow change in the concentration of solutes found in a solution between the two regions. A gradient in biological terms arises due to an unequal distribution of ions across the membrane of the cell. Both the process of facilitated and simple diffusion take place when there is a concentration gradient.

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

C) are sequence-specific DNA endonucleases

B) degrade foreign DNA that enters a bacterium.

Explanation:

Restriction enzymes are the proteins that cut the DNA at a specific sequence.

<u>Restriction enzymes are also known as restriction endonuclease produced by bacteria that recognizes a specific sequence on DNA and split it by catalyzing the hydrolysis or addition of water molecule. </u>So, Restriction enzymes are sequence-specific DNA endonucleases.

The biological role of restriction enzymes is to restrict the entry of foreign DNA into the bacterium. <u>Restriction enzymes have the ability to restrict the number of bacteriophage strains that affect bacteria.</u>

Hence, the correct options are "C and B"
