What are the common name, phylum, genus, and the species names for the Nonvascular plants?
Oksanka [162]
1.- Description In science, a common, vulgar, vernacular, trivial, or popular name is any name by which a species or other concept is known, and which is not the scientific name.

2.-a principal taxonomic category that ranks above class and below kingdom

3.-biology, taxonomy) A scientific name at the rank of species, with two terms: the generic name (generic epithet, the genus of the species) and the specific name (a term used only in zoology, never in botany, for the second part of a binomial) or the specific epithet (the term always used in botany, which can also be used in zoology).

We would expect that a 15-nucleotide sequence that includes a stop codon at the end (as part of the 15-nucleotide sequence) will
slega [8]

Answer: Four amino acids.

Explanation:

RNA (ribonucleic acid) and DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) are polymers made up of long chains of nucleotides. Thus, a nucleotide is the basic building block of nucleic acids and consists of a sugar molecule (ribose in RNA or deoxyribose in DNA) linked to a phosphate group and a nitrogenous base. <u>The nitrogenous bases can be Adenine (A), Thymine (T), Cytosine (C), Guanine (G) or Uracil (U) replacing T in RNA</u>. DNA is the molecule that stores the genetic information to synthesize polypeptides or proteins (set of amino acids). When proteins need to be created, DNA is transcribed into RNA and this RNA is translated in ribosomes to create polypeptides.

Complementarity is the ability to combine with their complement. A and T (or U) are complementary, while C and G are complementary to each other. Complementarity is the principle of replication and transcription, because it is a propery of both DNA and RNA sequences. Their the nucleotide bases at each position of the sequences are complementary, allowing cells to copy information.

Nucleotides in RNA are grouped into codons, which consist of groups of 3 nucleotides where each codon codes for an amino acid. Therefore, <u>the sequence of bases in nucleic acids determines which protein will be synthesized</u>. Protein synthesis begins with a start codon (AUG, which codes for the amino acid methionine) and ends with a stop codon (UGA, UAG and UAA). So, if there are 15 nucleotides, there are 15 bases. Since they are grouped in groups of 3, we will have a polypeptide of 4 amino acids.

<u>3 nucleotides form a codon, so 12 nucleotides form 4 codons giving 4 amino acids. The last codon, is formed by the last 3 nucleotides and form the stop codon that stop protein synthesis</u>.

A spinal-epidural, also called a(n) __________ epidural, is a system of administering continuous doses of anesthetic to a woman
Rudik [331]

The epidural anesthesia is a method of pain relief, which is used during the labor pain. It is a well known regional anesthesia. It works by acting as an analgesic, which means a substance that eases the pain, a complete anesthesia or loss of feeling does not occur in the case of epidural anesthesia. It blocks the nerve signals from the lower spinal segments. It is also known as spinal epidural anesthesia or lumbar epidural anesthesia.  

Hence, the black can be filled with lumbar.

What are the two most common reasons for modifying the land in South and Southeast Asia?
Goshia [24]

THE TWO MOST COMMON REASON FOR MODIFYING  THE  LAND IN SOUTH AND SOUTH ASIA IS

(i) first is significantly, the area of lands categorized as under forest/woodland and wetlands declined .At the same time, cultivated area increased .

(ii) another is requirement of additional land due to increase in population.

Explanation:

Between 1880 and 1980, the South and Southeast Asian landscape underwent dramatic modification.The 81% of the lost forest and wetland vegetation appears to have been converted into expanded agricultural land.

Human population in this region more than tripled between 1880 and 1980, producing an enormous demand for additional land for cultivation.
