Answer:

The region just above the light bulb is warmest due to the phenomenon of convection.

Explanation:

In the given case, as Xavier places his hands close to a light bulb, he feels that some of the regions around the light bulb are warmer in comparison to others. This takes place due to the phenomenon known as convection because of which the region directly above the light bulb gets warmest in comparison to the other regions.  

Convection refers to the transfer of heat with the help of mass movement of fluid like air, and the phenomenon takes place above a hot surface as hot air expands, becomes less dense, and elevates. This thing can be supported by the ideal gas law.

Why there are only 20 amino acids, although a amino acid is coded by a single codon with three bases. That means by permutation,
snow_lady [41]
In nature there are many more variations amino acids than the simple 20 found in humans. However, when analyzing the human genome sequence, there is a code for all 64 permutations (4^3), only some of them share amino acids. This is a safe-guard against mutations of one or two nucleotides. For example, the amino acid Alanine is coded with four different nucleotide sequences: GCA, GCC, GCG, GCU. Also some amino acids code the same like UUU &UUC
