An ecosystem can recover from even the most devastating events such as volcano eruptions. For instance, it has been observed that after the eruption of Mount Saint Helens, all of the plant life lay waste. However, and contrary to scientists' forecasts, majority of thee plant life began to grow anew in the wastelands after the eruption. Furthermore, animals from outside the region began to transfer to the area starting with airborne insects, herbivores and the rest respectively.

This was not an isolated case, and has been found in places like Mt. Rainier &  Mt. Fuji. These recoveries give us a glimpse of the ecosystem's even to the most harsh conditions.

Life as we know it depends on the genetic code: a set of codons, each made up of three bases in a DNA sequence and corresponding
slava [35]

Answer:

In the most general case of x bases and y bases per codon, the total number of possible codons is equal to xy . In the case of the hypothetical Martian life-forms, is the minimum codon length needed to specify 17 amino acids is 5 (25 = 32), with some redundancy (meaning that more than one codon could code for the same amino acid).  For life on Earth, x = 4 and y = 3; thus the number of codons is 43, or 64. Because there are only 20 amino acids, there is a lot of redundancy in the code (there are several codons for each amino acid).

Your medical bill is 2345 your health insurance covers 70% after a 120 deductible what amount of the bill will you pay
astra-53 [7]
The solution for the problem is:
Since there is $120 deductible, you get to pay…$2345 - $120 = $2225.
But since the insurance covers 70%, so you will only pay the 30%, so it is:30% x 2255 =30/10 * 2225 == $667.50 would be the amount you will be paying.
