RNA -RNA‚ also known as ribonucleic acid‚ is single-stranded. -An RNA nucleotide is structurally similar to that of a DNA nucleotide‚ but it contains a ribose sugar instead of a deoxyribose sugar. -In addition‚ RNA has the nucleotides Adenine‚ Cytosine‚ Guanine and Uracil. Thymine is NOT present in RNA. -Adenine pairs with Uracil‚ while Cytosine pairs with Guanine. -RNA is usually used as a “temporary molecule”‚ meaning that it is usually

The topic continues by looking at whether climate change will lead to extinction of species or evolution by natural selection‚ and looks at the evidence for global

survival. However the DNA contained in them is not necessary for reproduction or other basic cell functions. There is more than one type of RNA: ribosomal RNA and other proteins complex to form the ribosome. Ribosomes are structures that serve us protein factories for a cell. The cell cannot survive without proteins‚ ribosomes are vital to cell life. Like DNA‚ RNA is a component of all living cells and it is composed of nucleotides and arranged in long

prokaryotic and eukaryotic ells. Processes protein synthesis-process in which proteins are made of amino acids. For protein synthesis you need a ribosome and messenger RNA. Ribosome takes code out and pairs it with amino acid. Composed of 2 different subunits (small and large) The 2 units combine when they get to the messenger RNA Free ribosomes (in or on endoplasmic retulum) and bound ribosome’s (float in cytoplasm. Free ribosome’s make proteins that are used in cells‚ bound ribosomes

Cell size is limited by the efficiency of diffusion across the plasma membrane. A typical eukaryotic cell is 10 to 100 micrometers in diameter opposed to prokaryotic cells are 1 to 10 micrometers in diameter. Bacterial and Eukaryotic cells display different cell organization in their size and

protein synthesis occurred‚ with these new genetic traits from the plasmid. In protein synthesis‚ there are three steps: transcription‚ RNA processing‚ and translation. In transcription‚ the enzyme RNA polymerase unzips doubled stranded DNA‚ and then attaches the corresponding nucleotides to the DNA sequence. Then‚ RNA Processing occurs‚ where the new messenger RNA strand is edited by a spliceosome. The spliceosome cuts out specific sections of the strand‚ and then the strand is able to come back together
