Answer: The correct answer is- Amino acid.

Codon represents a unit of genetic code, which determines a specific amino acid.

It is a sequence of three nucleotides that are present in DNA/RNA sequence and codes for a specific amino acid ( like UUU codes for phenylalanine) during the process of translation. Codon also generates a start signal or stop signal during protein synthesis ( such as AUG is a start codon and UGA is a stop codon)

When two hormones must be present to achieve full expression of an effect, that interaction is called ______________.
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

Synergism

Explanation:

Synergism means cooperation, and is a term of Greek origin (synergy). Synergy is a work or effort to accomplish a certain very complex task, and to be able to succeed in the end. Synergy is the moment when the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

In physiology, synergism occurs when the effect of two or more combined chemical agents is greater than the sum of individual effects. Concerning hormones, synergism happens when two hormones must be present for the full expression of an effect. That is, two hormones act for a certain purpose.

Example: FSH (follicle stimulating hormone) and estrogen cause oocyte maturation, but this only occurs if neither acts in isolation.

  • cryosphere (The cryosphere is the frozen water part of the Earth system. The Beaufort Sea, north of Alaska. One part of the cryosphere is ice that is found in water),
  • atmosphere( is a layer or a set of layers of gases surrounding a planet or other material body)
  • lithosphere is the substantial, outer part of the Earth. The lithosphere includes the brittle upper portion of the mantle and the crust, the outermost layers of Earth’s structure. It is bounded by the atmosphere above and the asthenosphere below. The lithosphere is further subdivided into tectonic plates. The lithosphere is the most rigid of Earth’s layers.

In terms of communication, information is expressed either as the content of a message or through direct or indirect observation. That which is perceived can be construed as a message in its own right, and in that sense, information is always conveyed as the content of a message.

Information can be encoded into various forms for transmission and interpretation (for example, information may be encoded into a sequence of signs, or transmitted via a signal). It can also be encrypted for safe storage and communication.
