When you take cells or tissue pieces and grind them with an acid in a mortar and pestle, all the small biomolecules dissolve in the acid. Proteins, polysaccharides and nucleic acids are insoluble in mineral acid and get precipitated. The acid soluble compounds include amino acids, nucleosides, small sugars etc. When one adds a phosphate group to a nucleoside one gets another acid soluble biomolecule called

Make a dilute solution of the acid that is used i your home to clean bathrooms, very carefully, avoiding contact of the acid with your skin or eyes. Divide this solution into two parts and place it in two small glasses. In one glass add pieces of marle and in the other add marble dust.Does the same phenomenon happen in both cases? If not, which takes more time?

After the addition of the last amino acid to a growing polypeptide chain during the process of protein synthesis, one of the termination codons reaches the appropriate site on the ribosomal surface and then the following envents take place (i) Release of t-RNA molecule from the ribosome. (ii) Dislodging of polypeptide chain from the t-RNA (iii) Dissociation of ribosomes into large and small subunits. The correct sequence of these events:
