Answer: The option that is not true is D) Each amino acid is specified by only one codon.

Codon can be defined as the sequence of three nucleotides ( present in DNA or mRNA) that corresponds to a particular amino acid. It helps in the process of translation as different amino acids ( that are linked to codons) are assembled to give a particular protein according to the sequence of codon.

There are 64 codons and 20 amino acids that make up the proteins present in the living systems. This indicates that several different codons can correspond to the same amino acid.

For instance, amino acid Valine is coded by four codons that is GUC, GUG, GUA, GUU.

Thus, option D) is incorrect.

<span>Our body uses glucose for our main source of energy. We take in many sugars in our diet. Break down of these sugar begin in the mouth by saliva. The majority of break down and absorption of sugars occur in the small intestine. Sugars are broken down to monosaccharides to include glucose which is the main source used to produce energy in our body by cellular respiration. </span>

Explain in detail how to decide the number of replications in a simulation study. Use fixed-sample-size and sequential procedure
erik [133]

Explanation:

Fixed sample size:

In this fixed sample size the data is studied and checked in order to find a relationship. The benefits it is easy to produce, and with it less reliable outcomes can be given.

Sequential procedures:

→Sequential procedures helps while we are collecting the data.

→At an interim analysis, data collection can be stopped whenever the results are convincing enough to conclude an effect is present.

→Or otherwise the more data can be collected, or if needed the study can be terminated whenever it is extremely unlikely the predicted effect will be observed if data collection would be continued.

→In this two or more blocks of different sizes are prepared for testing.

→Pros being it provides better results and is less time taking, as we can stop once the relation is seen, con being it is difficult to perform.
