Yes. Knowing which nucleotide base codon the amino acids is made of, you can "decode" amino acids to the original DNA sequence.

Answer:

Yes if we know an amino acid sequence present in an mRNA we can figure out the DNA for that sequence. As the amino acid sequence are triplet codon present on an mRNA strand so the sequence that is complementary of the triplet codon would be present in the DNA.

For example, one amino acid sequence is AUG so the complementary sequence in the DNA for this amino acid sequence would be TAC. So in place of uracil adenine come in DNA.  

Therefore by complementary base pairing of the amino acid sequence, we can find out the DNA for that sequence.

Two different scientists were studying the carbon levels of the air above a large city. They both found that the levels had incr
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

Scientist 1

Explanation:

<em>The conclusion of scientists 1 is valid.</em>

Human activities such as burning of fossil fuels, agriculture, deforestation, etc. leads to the emission of carbon in the form of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. <em>An increase in the population of a city will only lead to an increase in these activities and hence, an increase in the amount of carbon emitted into the atmosphere.</em>

Also, volcanic activities leads to the production of volcanic gases which is a mixture of carbon dioxide, oxides of sulfur, nitrogen, etc.

<u>However, an active volcano that is several miles away from the city might not be a major source of carbon in the air above a large city. The carbon dioxide produced from such volcanic activity thins out before reaching the city.</u>
