The genome of an organism is inscribed in DNA, or in some viruses RNA. The portion of the genome that codes for a protein or an RNA is referred to as a gene. Those genes that code for proteins are composed of tri-nucleotide units called codons, each coding for a single amino acid.
Trypanasoma is a protozoan animal. It lives as a parasite in the blood and later invades the cerebrospinal fluid to cause the sleeping sickness. This parasite is transmitted by the Tsetse fly.
The clotting of blood is a chain reaction initiated by the enzyme thrombokinase produced by the platelets. This causes prothrombin to be converted into thrombin in the presence of ion.
Thrombin combines with fibrinogen to produce fibrin threads which entangles the corpuscles to form the clot.
Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic cells do share a feature of DNA.
Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have structures in common.
All cells have a plasma membrane, ribosomes, cytoplasm, and DNA.
Prokaryotic cells are primitive cells which have no true nucleus and membrane bound organelles, while Eukaryotic cells are cells that have true nucleus, membrane bound organelles and well defined structures and layouts.
You cannot see a microorganisms without using a Microscope. You also cannot taste or smell microorganisms such as bacteria in contaminated food.
No, the given statement is False.
Parasites are organisms that feed on other organisms causing harm to them.
Foods that allow micro organisms to grow are called Growth Mediums.
A sarcomere is the basic unit of striated muscle tissue. It is the repeating unit between two Z lines.
Skeletal muscles are composed of tubular muscle cells (myocytes called muscle fibers or myofibers) which are formed in a process known as myogenesis. Muscle fibers contain numerous tubular myofibrils. Myofibrils are composed of repeating sections of sarcomeres, which appear under the microscope as alternating dark and light bands. Sarcomeres are composed of long, fibrous proteins as filaments that slide past each other when a muscle contracts or relaxes.
A muscle fiber from a biceps muscle may contain 100,000 sarcomeres.
In Mitosis, one parent cell divides into 2 daughter cells with identical chromosomal number. However, in Meiosis, one diploid parent cell divides into 4 haploid daughter cells.
