The genetic code is redundant. The meaning of this statement is that (D) More than one codon can specify the addition of the same amino acid.

Genetic code is a set of three nucleotides (mRNAs) that code for an amino acid together. The concept of given by Francis Crick. These codes are standard in majority of the organisms on Earth, hence the code is universal. For example, UGG codes for tryptophan.

Amino acids are the molecules that are involved in the formation of proteins. They have an amino group as well as a carboxylic group attached to the same alpha-carbon. There are 22 amino acids in the body that are involved in protein synthesis.

Which of the following is not a cellular activity associated with microtubules?
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

A. maintenance of axons is not a cellular activity associated with microtubules.

Explanation:

Microtubules are hollow, bead-like, tiny tubular structure that helps cells maintain its shapes. Together with microfilaments and intermediate filaments, they form part of the cell's cytoskeleton. Microtubules also contributes to the cell movement or cytokinesis that includes muscle contractions in muscle cells. Microtubules also replicated chromosomes to opposite ends of a cell during cell division. Microtubules also contribute to the parts of the cell that help it move and are structural elements of cilia, centrioles and flagella. A bundle of microtubules makes up an axonemal structure of cilia and flagella.

The purpose of both mitosis and meiosis is to increase the number or population of cells in the body.

<h3>Compare mitosis and meiosis type of cell division</h3>

Mitosis produces two diploid (2n) cells that are identical to the original parent cell whereas meiosis produces four haploid (n) cells that are different from the original parent cell.

Mitosis occurs in somatic cells whereas meiosis occurs in reproductive cells.

So we can conclude that the purpose of both mitosis and meiosis is to increase the number or population of cells in the body.
