Answer: Codon

Explanation: A codon is a triplet of nucleotides in an mRNA that codes for specific amino acids. There are 64 possible codons. They are called the genetic codes. Three of these codons (UAA, UAG, UGA) do not code any known amino acid and are thus called termination codons. One of the codons (AUG) signals the beginning of translation and is thus called initiation codon.

How are long term and short term environmental changes similar? and how are they different?
netineya [11]

Answer:

Explanation:

Environmental changes occurs from time to time, we have the short term changes that do not last for a very long time and the long term changes that last for a while. Accumulate of short term changes can extend to long term as some of the long term effects are as a results of short term changes in the environment.

Short term environment changes can be favourable to some organism and adversely affect others. Raining season causes increase in growth and development of most plant species but a long period of drought and dryness makes its hard for some plant to strive while some plants can strive well in long period of drought. This makes the two changes different, the both have individual effects on plants response.
