Answer:

Internal receptor: Internal receptors present on the cytoplasm, and also known as cytoplasmic or intracellular receptor. These Internal receptors respond to hydrophobic ligand molecules which can travel across the plasma membrane. These receptors can influence (directly) the gene expression means how much a specific protein is produced from a gene without having to pass the signal on the other receptor.

Cell-surface receptor: cell-surface receptor is present on the cell membrane is known as trans-membrane receptors. This trans-membrane receptor binds to external ligand molecules which cannot travel across the cell membrane. They are also called cell-specific proteins because they are specific to individual cell type. The cell-surface receptor has 3 main components:

1) External ligand-binding domain.

2) Hydrophobic membrane-spanning region.

3) Intracellular domain.

Which best describes a difference between transcription and DNA replication??

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

<em><u>The right answer is "D".Transcription uses uracil.</u></em>

Explanation:

The genes carried by the DNA will be encoded in another form: messenger RNA, during a process called "transcription".

The DNA and RNA molecules are chemically very close, but the second has an extra oxygen (in red on the right of the letters) on the sugars (riboses) that make up its nucleotides (the DNA actually contains deoxyribose). In addition, the thymine (T) of DNA is replaced by uracil (U) in RNA.

Hope this help

Have a nice day!!

6. Delete any base (between the READING FRAME, excluding the start and stop codons) and show the change in the amino acid sequen

kati45 [8]

This is the DNA. I'm going to only use the upper strand to demonstrate what this strand would code for before and after a single bp deletion (so write it as mRNA). I will also write it how it's easier to see this which is to split them up into the 3 base codon system. Note that you don't need to know the amino acid code - you use a table to find these.

ORIGINAL (mRNA on top, Amino Acid (AA) on bottom:

5'-AGC GGG AUG AGC GCA UGU GGC GCA UAA CUG-3'
SER GLY MET SER ALA CYS GLY ALA STOP LEU

Note that the protein would stop being made at the stop codon and the LEU wouldn't matter at the end...

Now, I will remove one bp...(I bolded it up top). Rewrite the mRNA and find the corresponding AA...

NEW
5'-AGC GGG AUG GCG CAU GTG GCG CAU AAC UG-3'
SER GLY MET ALA HIS VAL ALA HIS ASN .....

Completely different amino acid sequence after the methionine (MET). The stop codon is gone...the protein would continue being translated until it reaches another stop codon...so not what was supposed to be made!

In the cannon-bard theory of emotion, the thalamus sends simultaneous messages to the _____.

Andreyy89

In the cannon bard theory of emotion, the thalamus send simultaneous messages to the cortex and autonomic nervous system. The cannon bard theory state that we feel emotion and experience physiological reaction such as sweating, trembling and muscle tension simultaneously. Emotion and bodily change do not share a cause and effect relationship rather they occur simultaneously following stimulating event.
