<span>The answer is cysteine. This is a half essential proteinogenic amino acid with the formulation of HO₂CCHCH₂SH. It is prearranged by the codons UGU and UGC. The thiol side chain in cysteine frequently partakes in enzymatic responses, as a nucleophile.</span>

Answer:

Theoretically, it will result in the formation of cysteine or cys. However, in living cell or practically it may not result in formation of cysteine as translation always begins with the formation of methionine which is coded by AUG (start codon) on mRNA.

If DNA contains ACG as the first triplet, then it will be coded as UGC in the mRNA. UGC codes for cysteine which is a semi-essential amino acid.

On the other hand, if ACT is kept as the first triplet in a DNA sequence, then it will be coded as UGA which is one of the three stop codons (UAA, UGA, and UAG).

The correct answer is skeletal development resulting in the movement of amphibians onto land and possibly evolved from lobe-finned fishes.

The initial lobe-finned fishes are bony fish with lobed, fleshy, paired fins that are connected with the body by a solitary bone. The fins of the lobe-finned fishes vary from those of all other fish in that each is borne on a lobe like, fleshy, scaly stalk protruding from the body.

This skeletal development will show that the species first developed in water and then gradually move onto the land and ultimately developed as species of land.
