The livers have a good day! :))
Answer:

A. mRNA ( messenger RNA),B. rRNA (ribosomal RNA) and C. tRNA (transfer RNA )</h2>
Explanation:
A. mRNA ( messenger RNA);
i)it is the most abundant form of RNA
,
ii) specifies the amino acid sequence for a protein
,
iii) contains exons.
B. rRNA (ribosomal RNA);
i) it is assembled in the nucleolus
,
ii) is a component of ribosomes
.
C. tRNA (transfer RNA );
i) contains anticodon,
ii) has amino acids covalently attached
.
<h2>The given statement is true</h2>
Explanation:
Iron absorption occurs in the duodenum and upper jejunum of small intestine
- At physiological pH ferrous iron is rapidly oxidized to the insoluble ferric form
- Gastric acid lowers the pH in the duodenum which enhances the solubility and uptake of ferric iron
- Once iron gets inside the enterocyte it can be stored as ferritin;Ferritin is a hollow spherical protein which helps in storage and regulation of iron levels within the body
- Ferritin molecule have ferroxidase activity which helps in the mobility of Fe2+ out of the enterocyte by ferroportin
- Transferrin is the major iron transport protein which transports iron through blood
- Fe3+ binds to transferrin so Fe2+ transported through ferroportin must be oxidized to Fe3+
- Fe2+ needs to be oxidized first so that it can be transported through ferroportin
- Once iron gets inside the cell it can be used for various cellular processes
In the stomach, food undergoes chemical and mechanical digestion. Peristaltic contractions (mechanical digestion) churn the bolus, which mixes with strong digestive juices that the stomach lining cells secrete (chemical digestion). As food travels from your mouth into your digestive system, it's broken down by digestive enzymes that turn it into smaller nutrients that your body can easily absorb. This breakdown is known as chemical digestion.

Explanation:
Convection currents in the magma drive plate tectonics. Heat generated from the radioactive decay of elements deep in the interior of the Earth creates magma (molten rock) in the aesthenosphere. The aesthenosphere (70 ~ 250 km) is part of the mantle, the middle sphere of the Earth that extends to 2900 km.
