Answer:

E) 1800

Explanation:

because DNA is first transcribed in to single stranded RNA which encodes for amino acid.

each 3 nucleotide  of mRNA encode 1 amino acid  

so for 300 amino acids = 900 nucleotide of mRNA

so for DNA which is double stranded= 900 x 2 = 1800

so 1800 total nucleotide are there in the DNA which is transcribed to form 900 nucleotide  of mRNA and later translated to 300 amino acids of protein.

An action potential in an excitatory presynaptic nerve. 2. an _____ in the dendrites of the postsynaptic nerve. 3. this spreads
LUCKY_DIMON [66]
An action potential is an excitatory presynaptic nerve. An EPSP (Excitatory postsynaptic potential) takes place in the dendrites of the postsynaptic nerve. This spreads passively to the axon hillock. Depolarization of this region opens voltage-gated ionic channels. Sufficient membrane depolarization to threshold opens enough to these channels to produce an action potential.
Non myelinated axon; the currents associated with the action potential spread to the depolarized region of the axon.
In myelinated axon; the currents associated with the action potential spread to the next Node of Ranvier.
The action potential travels down the axon to the axon terminals.

Compare and contrast the characteristics of viruses and the characteristics of living
Annette [7]
Viruses aren’t actual cells that carry out the properties of a living organism. Instead they take over a healthy cell as their host and reproduce by hosting the cell during cell division. This is what makes them hard to catch. I would say that viruses don’t carry out living processes and that living organisms do. Both can be found in the body. Viruses aren’t actually alive, they need a host whereas living organisms are self sufficient
