Transcription and translation of a gene composed of 30 nucleotides would form a protein containing no more than ___ amino acids.

Biology

will not form a protein of not more than 10 amino acids. during transcription the DNA carrying a certain information is converted to m-RNA which will then be converted to protein in a process referred to as translation. the reason why a gene with 30 nucleotide bases will not form a protein with more than 10 amino acids is every three nucleotide base code for one amino acid. so when you divide 30 by 3 the answer is 10.

Living cells require constant access to energy in order to remain alive. Which statement BEST describes why cells need a constan
docker41 [41]

Answer:

D) Energy is required in order to maintain homeostasis--without a constant, organized internal state, the cell will die.

Explanation:

Homeostasis is the condition of relative stability that the body needs to perform its functions properly for the body's balance.

Despite changes that may occur in the body, internally or externally, homeostasis is the constancy of the internal environment (interstitial fluid). Keeping at an appropriate temperature (37º C) ensuring that the necessary changes to the body occur; and thus the cells of the body develop.

Because of homeostasis, cells need a constant supply of energy. That's because energy is needed to maintain homeostasis - without a constant, organized internal state, the cell will die.

How Can Sex-Linked Traits Be Identified
kkurt [141]

If a gene is found only on the X chromosome and not the Y chromosome, it is said to be a sex-linked trait. Because the gene controlling the trait is located on the sex chromosome, sex linkage is linked to the gender of the individual. Usually such genes are found on the X chromosome. The Y chromosome is thus missing such genes (See Diagram above.). The result is that females will have two copies of the sex-linked gene while males will only have one copy of this gene. If the gene is recessive, then males only need one such recessive gene to have a sex-linked trait rather than the customary two recessive genes for traits that are not sex-linked. This is why males exhibit some traits more frequently than females.

In exocytosis, the membrane package fuses with _____.a transport protein a gap junction the nucleus the cell membrane
Maksim231197 [3]
Exocytosis is a procedure by which a cell transports secretory items through the cytoplasm to the plasma film. Secretory items are bundled into transport vesicles. In exocytosis, the one that fuses with the membrane package is the cell membrane. The membrane is transported to the cell membrane and the water molecules are released into the extracellular environment.
