Answer:  Portions called introns are removed and the remaining exons are spliced together

Explanation:

<u>The messenger RNA obtained after transcription is known as primary transcribed RNA or precursor RNA, and it has to undergo modifications before exerting its function. This is called RNA processing or maturation.</u><u> </u>

In the DNA sequence, the coding content of a gene is not continuously distributed along the gene, but has discontinuities, called introns, whose sequence does not encode proteins. The parts of the sequence that encode proteins are called exons. Through a process called splicing (which is one of the modification that are part of the RNA maduration),<u> the introns are eliminated and the exons are joined forming a mature messenger RNA</u> molecule that will be used for protein synthesis.

So the exons are part of the region of a gene that is not separated during the cutting and splicing process and is therefore kept in the mature messenger RNA. <u>Each exon codes a specific portion of the entire protein</u>, so that the set of exons forms the coding region of the gene.

Under a microscope, the cells of the mushroom plants and animals all have visible nucleus. This makes them all:
KATRIN_1 [288]
The correct answer is B -Eukaryotes.

“Eukaryotes are the organisms that possess a true nucleus (containing the DNA, which is the genetic material) and the membrane bound subcellular compartments ( also known as cell organelles) such as golgi complex, endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria.
As per the given information in the question, cells of mushrooms, plants, and animals all have visible nuclei under a microscope.
Thus, it indicates that these organisms are eukaryotes.”

Contrast the different ways bromeliads and pitcher plants acquire nutrients from animal sources. NOT COMPARE.
dezoksy [38]
<span>Bromeliads are an example of mutualism where they create mini-ecosystems that house other small animals by collecting rainwater in their leaves. The bromeliad benefits from the nutrients when these organisms decompose when they die. Unlike the Pitcher plants which are predators, they actively trap insects and other small animals in their pitchers.

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

the approach has been described below

Explanation:

I will have to use motivation as a way of enhancing change in the life of Sally. From this question, she seems to be a lonely lady, with low self-esteem and no physical activity. The first thing I would do is to help to get her out of monotony by motivating her.

Once motivated, I would help plan her diet and add combinations of physical activities. These activities may include walking and running. With time an expert would take over her physical training.

She has to make time for other activities such as yoga or community work. The purpose for this is so she can meet and connect with other people, this would give her a sense of belonging. And would help boost her self image.

In conclusion, Sally needs a combination of physical and emotional therapy in order to change her lifestyle.

Calix’s karyotype showed that he has a genotype of XXY. Explain how nondisjunction caused Calix to be XXY.
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

A XY or XY gamete fuses with a normal gamete (X or Y)

Explanation:

Meiotic nondisjunction is the phenomenon whereby chromosomes fail to separate during meiosis I or II. Meiotic nondisjunction leads to the formation of abnormal gametes I.e. gametes with additional or missing chromosomal piece.

The fusion of these abnormal gametes produced by nondisijuction with a normal gamete (X or Y chromosome). This leads to a condition called ANEUPLOIDY, which is a chromosomal disorder. In the case od Calix, XXY is an ANEUPLOIDY state that could have resulted because there was a fusion between a XX gamete and Y gamete or XY and X. The XY or XX gametes are produced as a result of nondisijuction.
