To review:
The given blank space in the statement, “synthesis of ribonucleic acid (RNA) from the instructions in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is called __________________. Synthesis of a protein from the instructions in messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) is called __________________.”
Introduction:
The central dogma takes place in each and every cell of the body. It was described by Watson and Crick. There are three processes that take place in the cell. These are replication, transcription, and translation.

Explanation of Solution
The DNA in a cell is being replicated continuously when the new cells are made. The formation of the new DNA strands from the previously existing DNA is called replication. For the formation of the proteins, the DNA has to be converted to RNA so that it can be taken to ribosomes. The conversion of DNA to RNA is called transcription. It takes place from 5’ to 3’ direction and thus the DNA strand having 3–5’ direction acts as a template for the formation of messenger RNA.
The messenger pre-RNA is modified by process called splicing and converted to a form that only contains exons. Exons are those parts of the messenger RNA that code for the proteins. The conversion of messenger RNA to the proteins takes place with the help of transfer RNA and the process is defined as translation.
Synthesis of RNA from the instructions in DNA is called transcription. Synthesis of a protein from the instructions in mRNA is called translation.

- We will be starting a group project next week where you and your group will research and ultimately present on a current research article related to the biology of a pathogen that infects humans. The article could be about the pathogen itself, the disease process related to the pathogen, the immune response to the pathogen, vaccines or treatments that affect the pathogen, or other biology-related study about the pathogen. I recommend that you choose a pathogen that is currently interesting to researchers, so that you will be able to find plenty of articles about it. Avoid choosing a historical disease that no longer circulates. List 3 possible pathogens or diseases that you might want to do for your group project.arrow_forwardnot use ai pleasearrow_forwardDNK dagi nukleotidlar va undan sintezlangan oqsildagi peptid boglar farqi 901 taga teng bo'lib undagi A jami H boglardan 6,5 marta kam bo'lsa DNK dagi jami H bog‘lar sonini topingarrow_forward
- One of the ways for a cell to generate ATP is through the oxidative phosphorylation. In oxidative phosphorylation 3 ATP are produced from every one NADH molecule. In respiration, every glucose molecule produces 10 NADH molecules. If a cell is growing on 5 glucose molecules, how much ATP can be produced using oxidative phosphorylation/aerobic respiration?arrow_forwardIf a cell is growing on 5 glucose molecules, how much ATP can be produced using oxidative phosphorylation/aerobic respiration?arrow_forwardHow do i know which way the arrows go?arrow_forward
