<span>Water has a surface skin. Some insects are able to generate tiny bubbles under their bodies which makes them buoyant enough to not break thru the water's skin. This skin is also known as surface tension. </span><span>Some bugs and small objects (pins or paperclips, etc) can rest on the surface of the water due to surface tension. Water molecules are bipolar and attract each other forming a skin. The bug or paperclip make tiny depressions in the water skin which provides buoyancy. A detergent will ruin the water tension (because it is a wetting agent) and the bug or paperclip will sink.</span><span>

Answer:
The importance of the AUG and UGA bases lies in the fact that the first one is a start codon and the second one is a stop codon, respectively (option a).
Explanation:
Codons or triplets are sequences of three nitrogenous bases, in the mRNA, that determine the synthesis of a specific amino acid.
- <em>AUG </em><em>is called the </em><em>initiation or start codon</em><em>, and is usually at the beginning of a peptide synthesis, in addition to encoding the amino acid methionine.
</em>
- <em>UGA</em><em> is a</em><em> termination or stop codon</em><em> found at the end of a petid chain when it is complete. UAA and UAG codons are also STOP or termination codons and, together with UGA, do not code for amino acids.</em>
The biological importance of start and stop codons is to initiate the synthesis of a protein and to stop the addition of amino acids when their size is adequate.

Answer:
The process of gene cloning involve multiple steps. It involves many enzymes, bacterial cell, vector to produced an amplified number of cell and hence product.
The gene of interest is find and then it is carried into the bacterial cell by the help of vector.
The vector is then carried to get incorporated into the bacterial cell. In this way the bacterial cell starts replicating and the and the desired product is produced in high amount.
