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.

If potatoes only grow in warm weather, why can we get them in the winter?
Ksivusya [100]
If you plant your potatoes in late August, while it is still hot, you may still have them in the cooler months after. Cool weather doesn't really harm potatoes, they can still grow then, it is only when it is frosty that potatoes die off. The foliage will die, but the potatoes will remain securely underground until you are ready to dig them out. Additionally, potatoes can be grown indoors so that you can always have them.

Imagine you are administering an HIV patient's drug cocktail treatment for the day. The patient has become curious about how the
sammy [17]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

A) First of all, it must be considered that HIV has a RNA genome.

The reverse transcriptase is a viral enzyme able to convert a RNA molecule (in this case the RNA would be the viral genome) to DNA. This process is important for two reasons:

* The DNA molecule is more stable than RNA --> Therefore, there is a higher likely that the molecule wouldn't be degradated by the host.

* The viral genome made of DNA will be integrated into the host genome --> To do so, it requires to be DNA instead of RNA

B) The inibitor is able to target the Reverse Transcriptase --> So, the likehood of converting RNA to DNA is lower. In this case, the single RNA molecule is less stable than the DNA and the host can degradate it more easily.

C) In general, the viral will not survive the treatment and, hence, the patient will not suffer from the viral infection
