RNA or Ribonucleic Acid is made up of sugars and phosphates as well as nucleotides, Adenine, Cytosine, Guanine and Uracil.(which takes the place of Thymine in DNA) The nucleotides connect up to the other ones in DNA which has been split apart by enzymes then it makes up an amino acid chain called a poly peptide.

Which of the structures in Figure 11-1 are composed of RNA?

Without access to Figure 11-1, I can't specify which structures are composed of RNA. However, generally, structures such as ribosomes, messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), and ribosomal RNA (rRNA) are composed of RNA. If you can describe the figure or the specific structures, I could provide more tailored information.

What is a infectious agent composed of a simple strand of RNA with no protein component?

A infectious agent composed of a simple strand of RNA with no protein component is called a viroid. Viroids are smaller and simpler than viruses, consisting only of a short, circular RNA molecule. They can infect plants and disrupt their normal growth processes.


Ribosomes are composed largely of protein and?

Ribosomes are composed largely of protein and ribosomal RNA (rRNA). They are responsible for protein synthesis in the cell by reading the messenger RNA (mRNA) and translating it into a specific sequence of amino acids to form a protein. Ribosomes exist in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.


Is ribosomes composed of protein?

Yes, ribosomes are composed of both protein and RNA molecules. The protein components constitute about two-thirds of the ribosome's mass, while the RNA molecules are involved in the catalytic functions of protein synthesis within the ribosome.
