3 nucleotides are needed to specify 1 amino acid, thus 9 nucleotides would be needed to specify 3 amino acids.

It has to be understood that a total of 3 nucleotides are required to specify 1 amino acid. then, the number of <span>nucleotides that are needed to specify three amino acids is actually 9. I hope that this is the answer that you were looking for and the answer has actually come to your desired help.</span>

What is the name of the structure that composers most of the cell membrane?
noname [10]

The cell membrane consists of three classes of amphipathic lipids: phospholipids, glycolipids, and sterols. The amount of each depends upon the type of cell, but in the majority of cases phospholipids are the most abundant, often contributing for over 50% of all lipids in plasma membranes.

HELP BIOLOGY???
dezoksy [38]

Ans.

The codons show genetic codes, made up of triplet of nucleotides in DNA or RNA that code for specific amino acids. The different codes can code for a same a amino acid. When a substitutional mutation occurs in genetic material, it shows substitution of one nucleotide pair for another and leads to formation of a different codon.

The first mutation that leads to CAU to CAC, it will not show any potential damage as both CAU and CAC codons code for histidine amino acid.

The second mutation that leads to UGU to UGC will also not show any damage to protein as both of these codons code for cysteine amino acid.

The third codon, that results UCU to UUU will cause a potential damage to protein as UUU codes for phenyl alanine (an aromatic, non-polar amino acid) and UCU codes for serine (a polar amino acid).

Thus, the correct answer is 'option C).' as in a protein, substitution of serine with phenylalanine will lead to change in structure and function of that protein.
