Answer:
1. A codon is a triplet of nucleotides that codes for an amino acid. This amino acid is transported by the tRNA which possesses a complementary anticodon and it gets added to the nascent protein.
2. Amino acids are organic compounds that contain amino (–NH2) and carboxyl (–COOH) functional groups, along with a side chain (R group) specific to each amino acid.
3. the onset of protein production is signaled by the AUG codon which encodes methionine. the stop to the synthesis is given instead by the stop codons (UAA, UAG, UGA)
4. Met-Val-Thr-Ser-Arg-Leu-Stop
Answer:
b. The number of cactus plants would increase.
Explanation:
Food chain is defined as a linear netwrok between producer and high level predators of environment and shows the flow of energy between them.
Kangaroo rats are rodents which lives in desert and feed over cactus plants, grass and other isects for their survival. If kangaroo rats will be removed from the food chain, the number of cactus plants will increase as kangaroo rats will not be there to feed them and number of snakes will decrease as snakes may die as they feed over kangaroo rats.
Hence, the correct option is b.
