5. A particular anticodon is 5'-AGC-3'. The codon that is a precise complementary base pair match for this is 5'-AGU-3'. However

, this anticodon can also bind to the codon 5'-GCU-3'. Both codons specify the amino acid serine. 3'-UCG-5' anticodon 3'-UCG-5' 5'-AGC-3' codon 5'-AGU-3' How can this one anticodon bind to two different codons?

Explanation:

Wobble Hypothesis given by Francis Harry Compton Crick states that 3rd base of mRNA codon can base pair with 1st base of a tRNA anticodon undergoing non-Watson-Crick.

The first 2 bases of the mRNA codon form Hydrogen bonds with the corresponding bases on tRNA anticodon in Watson-Crick manner. Through this, they only form the base pairs with the complimentary bases. However, formation of the Hydrogen bonds between 3rd base on codon and 1st base on anticodon can occur potentially in non-Watson-Crick manner.  

<u>Thus, the Wobble Hypothesis explains that why the multiple codons can code for single amino acid.</u>

Why does the high pressure air being released into the ballast tanks of a submarine cause it to rise quickly?
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

Initially, the ballast tanks are filled with water. The weight of the submarine is equal to the upthrust of the water at the position of the submarine under water. When high pressure air is released into the ballast tanks displacing the water, the weight of the submarine becomes less than  the upthrust of the water thus the net force is is upwards and it forces the sub to resurface. This is according to the Archimedes principle which states that a a body partially or wholly immersed in water displaces its own weight of the fluid in which it is immersed.

The temperature of a star is 6000K and its luminosity is 1000. Which type of star is it?
Lorico [155]

Answer:

Its probably none of those.

Explanation:

White dwarf temperatures can exceed 100,000 Kelvin according to NASA (that's about 179,500 degrees Fahrenheit). Despite these sweltering temperatures, white dwarfs have a low luminosity as they're so small in size according to NMSU.

A given mass of air has a volume of 8.00 L at 60.0°C. At constant pressure, the temperature is increased to 80.0°C. Calculate th
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

D. 6.00 L

Explanation:

What we have here is an example of Boyle's Law. The equation here is P₁ · V₁ = P₂ · V₂. We know all of the values except for V₂.

60(8) = 80V

<em>Multiply 60 by 8 to get 480.</em>

480 = 80V

<em>Divide both sides by 80.</em>

480/80 = V

6 = V

The final volume for the gas is 6.00 L.
