The correct answer is False

Explanation:

The metric system includes a set of decimalized units such as kilogram (Kg), meter (m) or second (s) used internationally to measure different variables such as weight, energy, time or distance. The purpose of this system is to guarantee all around the world people use the same units and therefore measurements can be understood and used by everyone. For example, in trade, a kilogram of cheese represents the same amount of cheese all around the world. According to this, it is false the metric system is used exclusively in the United States because the main purpose of this is that is used all around the world.

Answer:

1) UUC-AUG-AUC-AAG-UAA.

2) 48

Explanation:

1) Determine the possible antisense oligo nucleotides possible from this amino acid sequence

Given that the peptide sequence is = Glu-Glu-His-Asp-Val-Leu 1.

we will use a codon table to show the codons and Anticodons for each of the Amino acids

Amino Acid Codons Anticodons

Glu GAA, GAG UUC, CUC

His CAU, CAC AUG, GUG

Asp GAU, GAC AUC, GUC

Val GUU, GUC, GUA, GUG AAG, GAC, UAC,CAC

Leu UUA, UUG, CUU, CUC, CUA, CUG | UAA, CAA, AAG, GAG,UAG,CAG

From the table above

The possible antisense oligo nucleotide sequence is : UUC-AUG-AUC-AAG-UAA.

2) How many total unique different oligonucleotide would need to be produced to cover all possibilities

A desired peptide sequence requires 16 anticodons

Hence the total unique different oligonucleotide needed to be produced to cover all possibilities = 16 *3 = 48

When this happens gasses dissolved in the magma are able to come out of solution, forming gas bubbles (the cavities) inside it. When the magma finally reaches the surface as lava and cools, the rock solidifies around the gas bubbles and traps them inside, preserving them as holes filled with gas called vesicles.
