Question

Answer the next questions using the following diagram. Assume one single gene has been transcribed so far. D DNA ribosomes 3 RNA a) Is C or D closest to the 3' end of the template DNA? Submit Answar Tries 0/99 b) Which way is the RNA polymerase moving? Submit Answr Tries 0/99 c) Assuming that all three ribosomes are translating the same protein, which ribosome was loaded into the RNA first? Submit Answer Tries 0/99 d) Assuming that all three ribosomes are translating the same protein, which ribosome which will have the shortest peptide fragment synthesized? Submit Answer Tries 0/99 e) Is (A) located at the 5' or the 3' end of RNA?4 Submit Answer Tries 0/99 f) Is the RNA eukaryotic or prokaryotic?

Explanation / Answer

1) synthesis is takes place from 5'-3' direction.

5' end of RNA inserted into ribosome and start translation. it means 3' end of RNA is near D point. so D point is close to 5' end of DNA and C point is close to 3' end of DNA.

2) RNA polymerase is synthesizing RNA from 5'-3' direction so it is moving towards point D.

3) ribosome 1 loaded onto mRNA first.

4) ribosome 3 will have shortest peptide fragment synthesized.

5) A is located at the 5' end of RNA.

6) this is a prokaryotic mRNA because it is polycistronic in nature.
