Yes, sure!

1) Moving Water - Water, when running for a long period of time, can actually start to weather rocks.

2) <span>Ice wedging - Yep, this can cause rocks to weather as well. Water, when being constantly frozen and unfrozen weathers the rock due to the fact that water is able to expand.
</span>
3) Plant Roots - Ah, these little nutrient grabbers can certainly weather rocks over periods of time.

4) Winds - Winds can certainly physically weather the rocks, and it's probably the most common way they do.


<span>P.S. If this answer helped you, please, make sure to say "Thanks" just below my answer. It will help me a lot</span>

The nucleotide sequence of a DNA codon is TAG. In an mRNA molecule transcribed from this DNA, the codon has the sequence _______
inna [77]

Answer:

The nucleotide sequence of a DNA codon is TAG. In an mRNA molecule transcribed from this DNA, the codon has the sequence 5'-<u>AUC-3'</u>. In the process of protein synthesis, a transfer RNA pairs with the mRNA codon. The nucleotide sequence of the tRNA anticodon is <u>3'-UAG-5'</u>. The amino acid attached to the tRNA is <u>Isoleucine</u>.

Explanation:

In the process of protein synthesis the mRNA contains the sequence of nucleotides —transcribed from the DNA— that defines the sequence of amino acids that a synthesized protein will have.

Codons are triplets of nitrogenous bases present in mRNA, which encode an amino acid, as well as the start and end of protein synthesis.

Anticodons correspond to triplets of bases present in transfer RNA (tRNA), which correspond with mRNA codons. tRNA is responsible for coupling amino acids to the polypeptide chain being synthesized. In view of this:

<em>- DNA triplet:               TAG</em>

<em>- Codon mRNA:      5'-AUC-3' </em>

<em>- Anticodon tRNA:   3'-UAG-5'</em>

<em>- Amino acid:           Isoleucine</em>

What is the source of the genetic information that determines the traits of a Pacific tree frog?
Tema [17]
The answer to the question above is letter D. <span>Chromosomes found in the cell nucleus.</span>
In the cell nucleus, DNA is tightly packed into the thread-like structure known as chromosomes. Every chromosome is made up of tightly coiled DNA around proteins (histones) that support its structure. Chromosomes are not visible when there is no cell division. It cannot be seen in the cell’s nucleus nor under the finest microscope. They are only visible when the cell is dividing and is apparently visible under a microscope.
