When the ribosome reaches a nonsense codon, which of the following occurs?

Biology
1 answer:
Flura [38]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-the polypeptide is released.

Explanation:

The non-sense codons are the codons which do not have any t-RNA thus do not code for any amino acids and leads to the termination of the translation.

The main non-sense codons are UGA, UAA and UAG which when read by the ribosome terminates the process of translation as these codons do not have the t-RNA due to which the ribosome releases the polypeptide from the E-site of the ribosome and terminates the process.

Thus, the option-the polypeptide is released is the correct answer.

Margaret [11]

Answer:

Explanation:

In a lake, oxygenic phototrophs produce new organic material as  well as O₂. If primary production rates are very high, the resultant  excessive organic matter production can lead to bottom-water O₂ depletion from respiration and the development of anoxic conditions.  This in turn stimulates anaerobic metabolisms, including  anaerobic respirations and fermentations.

Organic matter that is not  consumed in surface layers sinks to the depths and is decomposed  by anaerobes.

Which of the following best summarizes how hormone levels are controlled?
anastassius [24]

Answer:

Option A, Hormones are controlled by a feedback loop; information about a system is sent back to the controller of the system to improve its function.

Explanation:

Negative feedback loop controls the hormone production and release. This is done by eliciting the release of substances till a certain level after which the stop signal is activated thereby preventing further release. By this method,  concentration of hormones in blood is maintained within the narrow range.  

For example – Thyroid hormones is released when the anterior pituitary signals the thyroid. This continues till the hormones in the blood reach the threshold level. Once the threshold level is reached, hypothalamus receives a feedback and then signals anterior pituitary to inhibit further signaling to the thyroid

Hence, option A is correct
