natulia [17]

Options for the question are not given. They are as follows:

a. arg or lys

b. ala

c. thr

d. leu or ser

e. Only termination codons

Answer:

d. leu or ser

Explanation:

Four codons code for proline amino acid. These are CCT, CCC, CCA, and CCG. Hydroxylamine causes C to change into T or G to change into A.

If first position is changed in each codon:

CCT = TCT (UCU)

CCC = TCC (UCC)

CCA = TCA (UCA)

CCG = TCG (UCG)

These codons produce Serine amino acid.

If second position is changed in each codon:

CCT = CTT (CUU)

CCC = CTC (CUC)

CCA = CTA (CUA)

CCG = CTG (CUG)

These codons produce Leucine amino acid.

Hence, out of the given options, option d. leu or ser is correct.

Draw three different food chains, from this food web, that contain an aphid.
serg [7]

The food chain that would include an aphid include:

  • Plant ---> Aphid ----> Birds
  • Plant ---> Aphid ----> Spiders
  • Plant ---> Aphid ----> Bat

<h3>What is a food chain?</h3>

A food chain is a chart that shows how food is transferred from producers to consumers.

Producers are plants as they are responsible for producing food from inorganic materials using the Sun's energy.

Consumers depend on plants and other organisms.

The food chain that would include an aphid include:

  • Plant ---> Aphid ----> Birds
  • Plant ---> Aphid ----> Spiders
  • Plant ---> Aphid ----> Bat

Natali [406]

Answer:

As we get older the number of taste buds decreases.

Explanation:

Gustatory cells or the taste buds contains the different sensory cells on the tongue. The papillae consists of all the taste receptors. The sweet, bitter, salty, umami and sour tastes are recognized by the receptors.

The different individuals have different taste because of the presence of the different taste buds. The number of the taste buds decreases the individual gets older. The children has more taste buds and can easily understand the taste of different things. Hence, Joshua dislikes the broccoli taste.

Thus, the correct answer is option (a).

What is one piece of evidence that some organelles like mitochondria and chloroplasts within eukaryotes used to be independent p
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

organelles are very similar to present-day bacteria, suggesting a common ancestor.

Explanation:

Some evidence suggests that some organelles like mitochondria and chloroplasts within eukaryotes were once used to be independent eukaryotes.

Endosymbiosis theory says that ancestral prokaryotic cells engulfed bacteria like cyanobacteria which with time evolved into mitochondria and chloroplast. Molecular evidence also proves that these organelles were once prokaryotic organisms because they show similar genetic makeup and ribosome type.

So these organelles are similar to present-day bacteria showing that they have a common ancestor.

Potential results from changes in global phytoplankton populations are?
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Declining populations of phytoplankton, the basis of the marine food chain, will alter the seawater hues, potentially decimating fisheries. The world's oceans are warming and growing more acidic as a result of climate change, and a provocative new study suggests they'll be changing color too.

Explanation:

Hope this is good :)
