Why do some codons code for the same

Biology
1 answer:
ollegr [7]2 years ago
5 0
Answer: B

Explanation: Multiple different combinations of bases (A, G, C, T) can code for the same amino acid. This means that there are more possible combinations of the bases than there are amino acids. There are 20 amino acids and the four bases can have up to 64 different codon combinations.

If the blood pressure in your brain is 120 mm when you are lying down, what would it be when you stand up? Assume that your brai
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

The correct answer is 88.84 mmHg.

Explanation:

The pressure differential between the brain and the heart while standing up will be 120 - rho × g (gravity) × h, here h is the distance from the brain to the heart. The h is 40 cm or 0.4 m.  

rho×g×h = 1060 kg/m³×9.8 m/s²×0.4m  

= 4155 Pa  

Now converting Pa to mmHg we get:  

4155 Pa × 760 mmHg / 1.01325 × 10⁵ Pa  

= 31.16 mmHg  

Thus, the pressure in the brain now is 120 - 31.16  

= 88.84 mmHg (hypotension)

Having hair is a(n) _________ trait among mammals.
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Derived trait

Explanation:

An ancestral (or primitive) trait/character is a feature inherited from the common ancestor of the species/group of interest, while derived traits are those that were absent in the last common ancestor of the group of interest. For example, considering mammals as the target group, the presence of hair is a shared derived trait relative to other vertebrates, i.e., amphibians, reptiles, and birds. However, this trait (hair) is ancestral for humans since the genetically closest species to humans (e.g., chimpanzees) also have hair.

Hope this helps :)
