9. A gene has the base sequence that starts with: TAG CAT GGC AT What would be the mRNA base sequence formed during transcription, using the DNA sequence shown above?

AUC GUA CCG UT

Explanation:

when you are dealing with mRNA these bases transcribe to each other

guanine= cytosine

adenine= uracil

thymine=adenine

Note:

when you are transcribing from DNA to mRNA remember T=A but A does NOT equal T. A=U in a mRNA sequence

prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus in which the dna is stored in, it floats freely inside the cell.

eukaryote cells do have a nucleus in which the dna is stored in.

from my research i have to the conclusion that decomposers, such as fungi, bacteria and invertebrates, play a critical role in nutrient cycling and without them the earth's ecosystem may not support life as we know it. elements such as carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus exist in limited amounts on earth, although huge amounts of carbon are being released into the atmosphere from underground sources now by humans. it is still extremely important that other nutrients be retained by the process of re-use. decomposers are organisms that are able to chemically break down dead material and make these elements available for use by other organisms. without this breakdown of dead material, dead bodies would pile up. so decomposers also play a role in clean up also. without them, life might not continue as we know it and dead material would overwhelm the earth.
