Answer:

In case of the amino acid Leucine only, there are six different codons (TTA, TTG, CTT, CTC, CTA, CTG) that the tRNA can recognize and translate. Since there is only one codon that needs to be translated, only one tRNA is required.

Explanation:

The anti-codon on the tRNA recognizes the complementary bases on the codon, and because of the third-base wobble feature, there isn't a 1:1 ratio between the number of codons present and the anti-codons required.

Hope that answers the question. Have a great day!

Which of the following correctly compares the changes that take place in an ecosystem during primary succession and secondary su
n200080 [17]

Answer: B). Primary succession takes place over a long period of time on a newly formed land, while secondary succession occurs quickly in areas that have disrupted by a natural disaster.

Explanation:

A succession is a gradual change that occur within the biotic community due to change in the non-living environmental factors with respect to time until the community establish stability.

A primary succession occurs over a land which was not previously occupied by any living species. The land can be primitive, environmental factors like soil, air and others are not supportive initially. Thus, it takes long time to establish a biotic community.

A secondary succession occurs over a region which was previously inhabitated by colonies of species but disturbed due to natural calamity or human induced disaster. Some of the precursors of life can be found in such region like seeds, spores, roots and others which support new growth and the environmental factors are suitable to support re-establishment of living species. Hence, secondary succession takes place quickly as compared to primary succession.
