Answer:

The genetic code consists of <u>three</u> letter “words.”

Explanation:

I'm assuming this was what you're looking for. These "words" are known as codons: for example, AUG stands for the methionine amino acid, so that triplet of nucleotide bases leads to the Met amino acid being added to the final protein.

Which phenomenon causes oceans to bulge? the blowing wind the Coriolis effect the moon’s gravity the rotation of Earth
Gelneren [198K]

The correct answer is (c) the moon' gravity

The moon's gravity causes oceans to bulge. The moon's gravitational power is responsible for the rising and falling tides.The moon affects the ocean on the sides of the planet facing and facing away from it which causes oceans to bulge away from the earth. On one side ocean bulges away from the earth as planet is being pulled towards the moon and on the other side the ocean bulges towards the moon. Bulges facing towards the moon is high tides and bulges not facing towards moon is low tides.

Oxygen depleted zones at varying depths in marine waters between 100-1000m are called __________.
mr Goodwill [35]
<span>photic zone The photic zone or daylight (Sunlit) zone is the part of the water in a lake or sea that is presented to such power of daylight which assigns remuneration point, i.e. the force of light at which the rate of carbon dioxide take-up, or identically, the rate of oxygen generation, is equivalent to the rate of carbon dioxide creation, comparably to the rate of oxygen utilisation, diminishing in this way the net carbon dioxide digestion to zero. Since the photic zone is the place the greater part of the photosynthesis happens, the profundity of the photic zone is for the most part relative to the level of essential generation that happens here of the sea. Around 90% of all marine life lives in the photic zone. A little measure of essential creation is produced somewhere down in the deep zone around the aqueous vents which exist along some mid-maritime edges.</span>
