Answer:
5 bases
Explanation:
If there are 17 amino acids and only 2 bases that can be combined in order to make a codon then:
for 4 bases 
is 16 and it is not enough combination for all 17 amino acids
for 5 bases 
is 25 combinations (meaning that more than one codon could code for the same amino acid).
Answer:
Explanation:
The rate of pollination in the field (near the pond with no fish) will decrease exponentially. Because, as the fish population is removed from that ecosystem, the population of dragonflies and larva increases without check because, fish feeds on the dragonflies larva and kept there population in check. Due to this, the population of bees and other pollinators population decline becuase, they are major food source of dragonflies.
Honeybees are the keystone species because it's absence will lead to major changes in the ecosystem.
Both it.) And I.) Can be answers. You could argue either one is right.
Answer:
nucleus
Explanation:
The nucleus contains the cell 's DNA and directs the synthesis of ribosomes and proteins.
Answer:
The main function of stomach is to serve as a temporary storage chamber and primarily breaks down food by mechanical means.
Explanation:
The stomach is a muscular organ located on the left side of the upper abdomen.It secretes acid and enzymes that digest food.The stomach muscles contract periodically, churning food to enhance digestion (breaking down of food by mechanical means). The stomach is made up of several layers of tissues
The mucosa (mucous membrane) is the inner lining of the stomach.
Next is the sub mucosa.
The muscularis propria (or muscularis externa) is the next layer that covers the submucosa. It is the main muscle of the stomach and is made up of 3 layers of muscle.
The serosa is the fibrous membrane that covers the outside of the stomach.
The stomach has 3 main functions:
1.temporary storage for food, which passes from the esophagus to the stomach where it is held for 2 hours or longer
2.mixing and breakdown of food by contraction and relaxation of the muscle layers in the stomach
3.digestion of food
The stomach secretes various secretions containing enzymes which breaks down food chemically and the muscles mechanically break down the food.Food is broken down into a thick, acidic, soupy mixture called chyme, which enters the intestine.
