Describe the structure associated with a DNA molecule and explain why DNA adopts this structure. List three ways in which RNA differs from DNA. How is mRNA synthesized and what message does it carry? Explain how protein synthesis controls the function of a cell. ...
RNA interference, ribozyme technology, and CRISPR technology are some of the technologies used to silence genes. However, gene silencing is no new topic in this era as it holds so much importance in many of the physiological and developmental processes. Seve...
List three ways in which RNA differs from DNA. Describe how living things use anaerobic respiration to generate energy. In the answer, identify the main products generated by the two types of anaerobic respiration, and identify one organism that performs each type. Name and describe the differ...
Although, when in the polymer, the units repeat orderly in a linear fashion, each unit differs in the nitrogenous base it harbors. So, although strictly a monotonous molecule for chemistry, a nucleic acid, like DNA or RNA, varies in terms of the linear arrangement of nucleotides they h...
Describe how different cell types can arise from a single genome. Discuss the similarities and differences between DNA replication and RNA transcription. What is the difference between CRISPR and restriction enzymes? What are three differences between mitochondrial DNA and nuclear DNA? Explain th...
DNA Replication:DNA replication is the process of formation of a new DNA strand from the parent strand by the use of certain enzymes such as polymerases, ligases, and topoisomerases. DNA replication takes place in the nucleus of the cell....
Describe the structure of DNA and the steps of protein synthesis. Describe the ways in which replication differs from protein synthesis . Describe the process of RNA splicing in eukaryotic cells. Explain why simultaneous transcription ...
Explain the difference between DNA replication and RNA transcription. List three ways in which RNA differs from DNA. What is the function of DNA? (a) Explain the process of protein synthesis. (b) How it links to making mRNA? List the functions of DNA. Describe the structure of a ...
Name all of the types of RNA and the function of each segment. List three ways in which RNA differs from DNA. What are the two major types of nucleic acids and their roles? What are the structural differences between DNA and RNA? Describe a major functi...
What is RNA editing and at what level of gene expression does this regulation work? How are genes (and protein production) regulated? Mutations are changes in the DNA sequence of a cell. Describe two ways in which a mutation in the genome of a cell does not affect any...
