A scientist puts mRNA nucleotide chains that contain only Uracil (U) in a test tube. That test tube allows protein synthesis to

be initiated. After a short time, the scientist finds that the test tube is full of chains of the amino acid phenylalanine. Only phenylalanine is present and no other amino acid is observed. What does this experiment demonstrate?

An amino acid can be formed by combining 3 nucleobases. In the test, the only nucleobase the mRNA is uracil. That means the possible combination of the nucleobase should be only UUU. Since there is only 1 possible combination, there should be 1 possible amino acid that can be formed.
<span>Phenylalanine should have UUU codon.</span>

What is a type of weathering where rock is dissolved by an acid
nignag [31]

Answer:

Chemical weathering

Explanation:

The weathering of rocks by chemicals is called chemical weathering . Rainwater is naturally slightly acidic because carbon dioxide from the air dissolves in it. Minerals in rocks may react with the rainwater, causing the rock to be weathered. Some types of rock are easily weathered by chemicals.

Definition of chemical weathering: the erosion or disintegration of rocks, building materials, etc., caused by chemical reactions (chiefly with water and substances dissolved in it) rather than by mechanical processes.

Provide at least three reasons why friction is needed.
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

Although you normally hear about trying to reduce or eliminate friction, it actually has some important uses.

Since friction is a resistance force that slows down or prevents motion, it is necessary in many applications where you might want to hold items or do things and prevent slipping or sliding. In those cases, there is an advantage of having friction.

Quite often uses of frction can be seen from how things would be without friction. Without friction, you would not be able to walk, drive a car, or hold objects. Pens and pencils would not work.
