The genetic code is based upon reading 3 bases at a time

there are 4 nucleotides bases in DNA and 20 amino acids .
In order to incorporate all the amino acids we consider 3 bases in genetic code
4 x 4 x 4 = 64

if we would take 2 bases -
4x4 = 16 that would leave out 4 amino acids without a code .

How can you distinguish a clastic rock from that of a bioclastic rock
IRISSAK [1]

<u>Bioclastic</u> rocks are actually sub-parts of <u>clastic</u> rocks, not a completely different thing altogether.

<u>Clastic</u> rocks are made up of loosened bits of pre-existing rocks. These rocks are formed from weathering, breaking those larger rocks down into little particles (for example, a grain of sand) due to external weather factors such as wind or rain. Some examples of these rocks would be sandstone, conglomerate, and silistone. They are classified by the size and shape of the fragments they are made up of.

<u>Bioclastic</u> rocks are also made up of loosened bits, however, they are not made of rock. They are made of fossils and biogenic (made by living organisms) particles (for example, pieces of shells and coral). These rocks are formed from small parts of pre-existing organisms compacting together to form a rock. Examples of this type of rock would be coquina and limestone, or more specifically, bioclastic limestone. Bioclastic rocks have a very crystalline texture and it is highly likely that you will see a shell in this rock type.

C) By unbalanced forces acting on the object

Explanation:

Unbalanced forces can cause an object to change its motion.

If an object is at rest and an unbalanced force pushes or pulls the object, it will move. Unbalanced forces can also change the speed or direction of an object that is already in motion
