There is no set lifespan.It can live as long as the environment can support its life. However the average lifespan differs for each particular species, with an average life expectancy from a few days to a year or two.

Answer: codon AUG
Explanation: The codon AUG is called the START codon as it the first codon in the transcribed mRNA that undergoes translation. AUG is the most common START codon and it codes for the amino acid methionine (Met) in eukaryotes and formyl methionine (fMet) in prokaryotes.
Answer:
Both are considered macromolecules. I'll explain below
Explanation:
Proteins are like a huge Lego construction. Each individual piece gets pieced together to make a larger "thing" - Death Star, House, etc. Each individual piece is a monomer, and the larger construction is the polymer. The monomers are Amino Acids and they get pieced together to form the polymer that is called a protein. The linkage that they use is an amide bond, and in biology it is usually called a peptide bond.
Carbohydrates can be singular monomers or polymer units. They are made of completely different compounds - usually aldehydes or ketones. And they link together through different chemical linkages (acetal or ketal linkages for polymers,hemiacetal or hemiketal linkages for monomers).
Both can be large, 3D strucutres - proteins are only functional as a large, 3D structure, while carbohydrates can be singular.
6CO2 + 6H20 + (energy) → C6H12O6 + 6O2
Carbon dioxide + water + energy from light produces glucose and oxygen.
