Answer:
Some amino acids are encoded by more than one codon, inasmuch as there are 64 possible base triplets and only 20 amino acids. In fact, 61 of the 64 possible triplets specify particular amino acids and 3 triplets (called stop codons) designate the termination of translation.
Answer:
1. Molecular evidence: similar proteins and genes found in closely related species, even if those genes are not used by an organism.
2. Fossil evidence: organisms changing form over time through the fossil record.
Direct observation. We can directly observe small-scale evolution in organisms
with short lifecycles (e.g., pesticide-resistant insects).
Explanation:
It's a prokaryotic cell type.
