The entire process is called gene expression. In translation, messenger RNA (mRNA) is decoded in a ribosome to produce a specific amino acid chain, or polypeptide. The polypeptide later folds into an active protein and performs its functions in the cell.
Dominant is the first gene variant in a phenotype from the two alleles of a gene and recessive has effect on the third allele of a phenotype.
Explanation:
The genetic phenomenon of masking of chromosome with one variant of allele or predominating the impact of one gene on its chromosomal copy is Dominance. In this phenomenon the first variant of gene is known as ‘dominant’ and the second one is ‘recessive’.
This phenomenon is not inherited by phenotype, it has a relative effect on two alleles of a gene where one is dominant on other and the recessive is on third allele. Dominant allele has functional protein but recessive does not have it.
The rain gauge is an instrument used by meteorologists to measure the amount of precipitation in a particular region in a particular amount of time.
The rain gauge is placed on the ground in order to collect the rain or the precipitation sample. The rain gauge is labelled with the quantities, which can be used to measure the amount of precipitation.
So, the correct answer is option (a). on or near the ground.
Answer:
B. Enzymes generally catalyze only very specific biochemical reactions.
E. Most enzymes are proteins composed of amino acids
F. The cells of both eukaryotes and prokaryotes all contain enzymes.
G. If the active site of an enzyme is altered, the enzyme is unable to catalyze the biochemical reaction.
Explanation:
Enzymes refers to substances that acts as a catalyst in living organisms. They regulate the rate at which chemical reactions proceed without being altered in the process. Enzymes regulate the biological process that occur within living organisms.
Enzymes catalyze all aspects of cell metabolism such as digestion of food, conservation and transformation of chemical energy and the construction of cellular macromolecules from smaller precursors.
Application of enzymes
1. Industrial application
2. Medical application
1. Enzymes can be used for industrial application such as beer brewing, wine fermentation, bread leavening.
2. Enzyme can also be applied in the medical aspects for killing disease-causing microorganisms, promoting wound healing, and diagnosing some diseases.
