Concept explainers
A.
To determine: The tRNAs encoded by the three different organelles participate in protein synthesis in the cytosol.
Introduction: Transcription is the first of the overall two protein synthesis steps. During transcription, the information encoded in the DNA is copied to an RNA molecule as one strand of the DNA double helix is used as a template.
B.
To determine: The organelle has the largest proportion of nongenic DNA.
Introduction: The cell organelles are made up of Ribosomes composed of about equal amounts of rRNA that is ribosomal ribonucleic acid, and proteins, with a little proportion of lipids and specific metallic ions.
C.
To determine: The main reason for the difference in size of yeast and human mtDNA.
Introduction: The protein synthesis from amino acid sequences specified by the series of codons in messenger RNA is called translation. The translation is the first stage of protein biosynthesis.
