F. In protein synthesis, DNA serves as a template to synthesize mRNA in
translation, then in transcription mRNA moves out of the nucleus where it is
used to determine what amino acids are incorporated into the polypeptide
chain..
Answer: False, should be transcription, then translation.
◍ 21. Partial hydrogenation of unsaturated fatty acids results in the formation
of what ? How does this alter the properties of what is produced ( 3 points )
? The formation of trans fatty acids . The melting point of the trans fat
increases meaning that it is more likely to be solid at room temperature .
Trans fat is also more shelf stable , because they're more resistant to
oxidation.
Answer: The formation of trans fatty acids. The melting point of the trans fat
increases meaning that it is more likely to be solid at room temperature.
Trans fat is also more shelf stable, because they're more resistant to
