Answer:
If an mRNA strand is 6399 nucleotides long, it will code for 2132 amino acids, as the last triplet is the terminating codon.
Explanation:
Codons are found in the RNA chain and are made up of nucleotides trios, whose specific sequence determines the genetic code.
There are 4 nitrogenous bases in RNA - Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine and Uracil - which when combined in trios give rise to 64 possible codon combinations that code for 20 amino acids, so an amino acid can be formed by more than one codon.
Determining how many amino acids are encoded according to the amount of nucleotides in the mRNA would be as easy as <u>dividing the number of nucleotids in the chain by 3</u>, but considering that the last codon is not taken into account, since it is the termination codon.
- Amino acids = (amount of nitrogenous bases in mRNA / 3) - 1
- Amino acids = (6399 / 3) - 1
- Amino acids = 2133 - 1 = 2132
Answer:
Volcanoes are one kind of feature that forms along convergent plate boundaries, where two tectonic plates collide and one moves beneath the other.

Answer:
A. cnidarians
Explanation:
Comb jellies are most closely related to Cnidarians. Cnidarians are marine invertebrate organisms which make use of their cnidocytes filled with tentacles in catching preys.
They also have body parts such as the ectoderm and endoderm and a characteristic middle jelly layer called the mesoglea which is similar in a comb jelly.
Examples of Cnidarians include sea anemones and corals.

They're living things and produce.

A drop in voters willing to id selves as rep. or dem. A big
increase in split ticket voting. Structural changes and reforms. Changes in the
technology of campaigning for office. Can be seen as a weakness because it
often may lead to instability in government, it might be seen as a strength
because it gives voters a much more true choice among candidates and policy
alternatives then the present two-party system.
