After the mRNA has exited the nucleus through the nuclear pores. Translation begins with the mRNA entering the ribosome. Next tRNA uses its three unpaired bases to bond with a specific amino and bring it ...

Describe: As the pH decreases below the optimum, enzyme activity also decreases. Explain: As pH decreases, the concentration of hydrogen ions increases (the environment becomes more acidic). Enzymes are p...

DNA is made up of sequence of nucleotides ( a phosphate, a pentose sugar and nitrogenous base). It is the sequence of bases on the DNA strand that codes for proteins. A sequence of three bases is called a...

Let's consider a synapse between an axon and a dendrite. To illustrate that an action potential is transmitted from the axon to the dendrite, the last portion of the axon, coming in contact with the dendr...

You might have heard enzymes referred to as 'biological catalysts'. This means, just like a catalyst you might add to a reaction in a chemistry practical, these proteins function to speed up reactions in ...
