Evolutionary relationships can be established by examining molecules such as the protein hemoglobin. Which process is responsible for making protein molecules
A. translation
B.replication
C.photosynthesis
D.mitosis
A?
A❤️
If fossils were found in Layer C (sandstone) and Layer A (slate and siltstone), which fossil would be older and why?
A because i guess.
Yes, the process responsible for making protein molecules is translation.
To understand why, let's break down the options:
A. Translation: This is the process through which the genetic information in mRNA (messenger RNA) is used to synthesize a protein. During translation, ribosomes, which are cellular structures, read the mRNA sequence and assemble the corresponding amino acids into a polypeptide chain, which folds and becomes a functional protein.
B. Replication: This process is involved in DNA replication, where a DNA molecule is duplicated to produce two identical copies. It is not directly responsible for the production of protein molecules.
C. Photosynthesis: This process occurs in plants and some bacteria, where light energy is converted into chemical energy in the form of glucose. Photosynthesis is not involved in the synthesis of protein molecules.
D. Mitosis: This is the process of cell division, where a single cell divides into two identical daughter cells. Although cell division is crucial for growth and repair, it does not directly produce protein molecules.
Therefore, the correct answer is A. translation.
