Answer;

-Start codon: AUG;

-Stop codon: UAA;

-Amino acid sequence: Met-Ala-Leu-stop

Explanation;

-A codon is a sequence of three DNA or RNA nucleotides that corresponds with a specific amino acid.

-The start codon marks the site at which translation into protein sequence begins, and the stop codon marks the site at which translation ends. The start codon is often preceded by a 5' untranslated region (5' UTR). AUG is the most common start codon. There are three RNA stop codons: UAG, UAA, and UGA.

It is on the genetic code that the biosynthesis of proteins rests. The DNA is transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA). This is translated by the ribosomes that assemble the amino acids present on transfer RNAs (tRNAs).


The right answers are:


Start codon: 5'-uauccauggcacuuuaaac-3'. It codes for Methionine


Stop codon: 5'-uauccauggcacuuuaaac-3'


We will have three amino acids produced (each one has a codon of three nucleotides): 5'-uauccauggcacuuuaaac-3'.
Stop codon does not code for an aminoacid.


The AA sequence is Methionine-Alanine-Leucine.

Describe the long term effects of competition on populations of two different species competing for the same source.
Galina-37 [17]
The long term effects of competition on populations of two different species competing for the same source are as follows:
1. It becomes a situation of the survival of the fittest. For example, if two populations of plants compete for the same source, the stronger of the two species will overpower the weaker of the two species. Trees that grow taller will block out the sun and the smaller trees will die. In the animal kingdom, the strongest of the predators that compete for the same prey will survive.

Mumz [18]
Answer; (not correctly matched)
Apocrine gland; Thermoregulation;

Explanation;
Apocrine glands are found in the skin and the eyelids.
Most apocrine glands in the skin are in the armpits, the groin, and the area around the nipples of the breast.
They are scent glands, and their secretions usually have a odor. They empty into the hair follicle just before they open onto the skin surface.

Does coal releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere?​
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

yes

Explanation:

Coal is an important source of energy in the United States, and the Nation's reliance on this fossil fuel for electricity generation is growing. The combustion of coal, however, adds a significant amount of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere per unit of heat energy, more than does the combustion of other fossil fuels
