"GLD-1 is an RNA binding protein which binds to the 3' UTR of the MES-3 mRNA. If GLD-1 is not functional, MES-3 mRNA levels do not change, but MES-3 protein levels increase. The size of the MES-3 protein does not change, only its quantity. What is the function of GLD-1

GLD-1 is a regulatory protein whose function is to regulate the expression of MES-3.

Explanation:

Since the MES-3 protein itself is not modified but only its quantity is, then it is likely that the GLD-1 protein is only inhibiting MES-3's expression; keeping it at a certain  level set by the organisms DNA.

answer: accepted answer: aquatic animals use the oxygen dissolved in water to carry out respiration. since the amount of dissolved oxygen in water is low as compared to the amount of oxygen in the air, therefore the rate of breathing in aquatic animals is much faster than it is in terrestrial animals.

explanation:

1: most common garden plants prefer loam — soils with a balance of different-sized mineral particles (approximately 40% sand, 40% silt, and 20% clay) with ample organic matter and pore space. however, some plants grow better in sandy soils, while others are well-adapted to clay soils.

2: available water capacity is the maximum amount of plant available water a soil can provide. it is an indicator of a soil's ability to retain water and make it sufficiently available for plant use. available water capacity is the water held in soil between its field capacity and permanent wilting point.

3: it is the same for all living things (plants and animals). it also includes very tiny organisms that our eyes cannot see. they are known as microorganisms, and include viruses, bacteria and fungi.
