A codon is a sequence of three bases found on the messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule which is translated to produce an amino acid. Each amino acid is coded by one or more specific codons. If the codon is changed through a mutation, the amino acid produced may be different. However, in this case, the other codons that produce Leucine are:
UUA, UUG, CUU, CUC, CUA and CUG
So the code CUU could mutate to CUC, CUA or CUG and leucine would still be produced.
Answer:
The theories are grouped into four major theory types: (1) psychometric theories; (2) cognitive theories; (3) cognitive-contextual theories; and (4) biological theories.
<span>contractile vacuole
Contractile vacuoles are organelles that are responsible for excretion function. They perform osmoregulation which manages wastes, water and other needed materials in the cell. They are found in some prokaryoric organisms like the algae, protists, amoeba and other unicellular organisms.

The answer is 9%.
To calculate this we will use some <span>formulas of the Hardy-Weinberg principle:
</span><span>p² + 2pq + q² = 1 and <span>p + q = 1
where:
</span></span>
<span>p - the frequency of the A allele.
q - the frequency of the a allele.</span>
p² - the frequency of dominant homozygote (with AA genotype)
2pq - the frequency of heterozygote (with Aa genotype)
<span>q² - the frequency of recessive homozygote (with aa genotype)</span>
<span>We know:</span>
p = 70% = 70/100 = 0.7
q = 30% = 30/100 = 0.3
We need to calculate the frequency of the genotype aa:
q² = ?
Since we know the frequency of allele q, it is easy to calculate the frequency of the genotype aa:
q² = 0.3² = 0.09 = 0.09 · 100% = 9%
