The mRNA codons UCU, UCC, UCA, and UCG all code for the same amino acid, serine. The pattern shown by this example is something

that scientists call the “wobble effect.” What does this observation demonstrate?

The answer is:  A mutation in one base could have absolutely no physical effect on the resulting protein.
This wobble effect is referred to the redundancy that exists in the genome. Each amino acid can be coded by three different codons. The advantage of this is that it<span> can provide some protection against mutations. If one base pair changes, there is a possibility that it still codes for the same amino acid as before.</span>

What was hurricane Floyd's sea surface temperature?
Readme [11.4K]
Hurricane Floyd was a very powerful Cape Verde hurricane which struck the east coast of the United States. It was the sixth named storm, fourth hurricane, and third major hurricane in the 1999 Atlantic hurricane season. Floyd triggered the fourth largest evacuation in US history (behind Hurricane Irma, Hurricane Gustav, and Hurricane Rita) when 2.6 million coastal residents of five states were ordered from their homes as it approached. The hurricane formed off the coast of Africa and lasted from September 7 to September 19, peaking in strength as a very strong Category 4 hurricane—just 2 mph short of the highest possible rating on the Saffir–Simpson Hurricane Scale. It was among the largest Atlantic hurricanes of its strength ever recorded.

Floyd was once forecast to strike Florida, but turned away. Instead, Floyd struck The Bahamas at peak strength, causing heavy damage. It then paralleled the East Coast of the United States, causing massive evacuations and costly preparations from Florida through the Mid-Atlantic states. The storm weakened significantly, however, before striking the Cape Fear region, North Carolina as a very strong Category 2 hurricane, and caused further damage as it traveled up the Mid-Atlantic region and into New England.

The hurricane produced torrential rainfall in Eastern North Carolina, adding more rain to an area already hit by Hurricane Dennis just weeks earlier. The rains caused widespread flooding over a period of several weeks; nearly every river basin in the eastern part of the state exceeded 500-year flood levels. In total, Floyd was responsible for 57 fatalities and $6.5 billion (1999 USD) in damage. Due to the destruction, the World Meteorological Organization retiredthe name Floyd.

Some fruit flies have orange eyes and others have red eyes.
Burka [1]

Answer:

not 100% sure but

Explanation:

might be because each fruit fly has a different eye color because offspring from parents will have different eye color. or it might be from some sort of mutation that happened, that might be why they still have the gene to orange eyes. or red eyed fruit flys(or fly) migrated into a orange eyed populating and had offspring like that, that would also explain why red eyed fruit flys have the orange eyed gene.

again not 100% sure

but I hoped it helped a little
