Answer:

D. ACA codon codes for threonine

Explanation:

The genetic code has 64 triplets of nucleotides, each one is called codon. Each codon except three of them, encodes for one of the 20 amino acids used in the process of synthesis of proteins  

ACA, ACG, ACC and ACU are the only codons of the genetic code able to code for threonine. The codon UCG codes for serine, the codon UGU codes for cysteine and the code CGA codes for arginine

What percentage of water is lost through the respiratory system?
HACTEHA [7]
<span>The normal daily input of water is about 2.5 L from beverages food, and metabolism. The normal daily output of 2.5 L consists of 1.8 L in urine, sweat, and feces, plus 0.7 L in insensible water loss. Insensible water loss is water that evaporates through the skin and from the respiratory tract. Insensible losses account for 0.7 L of water loss per day. The average human exhales an average of 0.35 L of water each day. This corresponds to about 14% of water lost through respiration.</span>
