Biology
1 answer:
Dominik [7]3 years ago
6 0
There are two main reasons. First, there are introns and exons existed in eukaryotes. Introns do not contain the genetic information but are in large amount in chromosome. So, if the mutation occurs in the introns, it will be recessive. Second, one amino acid will corresponding to several base sequences. For example, UUU and UUC all represent Phe. This is called degeneracy. So if the mutation did not change the amino acid, it is also recessive.

jasenka [17]

The vinegar is a charged molecule, whereas, the oil is neutral. As like dissolves like, the vinegar can be dissolved with charged molecules and the oil can be dissolved with neutrals. So, to mix vinegar and oil shaking is required.

In case, the person does not mix oil and vinegar dressing before pouring this on the salad, it would not produce a good taste, as the content of vinegar and the oil would not be appropriate.
