Question
Chapter 15.4, Problem 1RIA
Summary Introduction
Ribosome are essential components of the eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms. They serve as the site of protein synthesis. This component consists of two subunits: small subunit and large subunit. These subunits join the amino acids together to form a polypeptide chain. These components and associated structures are known as the translational apparatus.

Molecular data will be limited to DNA sequences, with identification relying heavily on Genbank returns via blastN. The researchers would obtain their samples from the generated database and analyze the DNA barcode of each macroalgae. The researchers would also compare the previous list of discovered seaweeds from Panglao island to generate a new and updated version for this study. The research would no text end outside or to the neighboring islands around Panglao, Bohol. Neither would the researchers add or include specimens that did not appear in the database or originate from Panglao island. The data to be considered would also not discuss or include the entire taxonomic key of each available sample."arrow_forwardBacterial Identification Virtual Lab Add the Master Mix and answer the following questions: 13.
