Answer:

The correct answer is 3. peritrichous

Explanation:

Flagella is the surface structure found in bacteria that helps in the locomotion of the bacteria. There can be single flagella that can be located at one end of the bacteria or many flagella present on all over the cell surface of the bacteria.

If a bacteria contains only one flagella at one end it is called monotonous. If many flagella are present at one end then it is called lophotrichous. When both the end of bacterial cell contains an equal amount of flagella then the bacteria is amphitrichous.

Peritrichous are those bacteria which contains many flagella that are located all over the surface of their body, for example, E. coli is the bacteria present in human intestine having flagella distributed all over its surface.

What is mostly the reason of an organism having lipids in its body

atroni [7]

The most reason for an organism having lipids in its body is to provide energy to the body. The fat molecules in the lipids can supply more energy gram than carbohydrate molecules. The fat molecules are composed of carbon (C), hydrogen (H), and oxygen (O) atoms. I hope this will help!! Have a great day.

A) In how many cases in the genetic code would you fail to know the amino acid specified by a codon if you knew only the first t

Vesna [10]

Answer:

a) 28 cases

b) 3 cases

Explanation:

a) From the table of genetic codes, there are 28 codons that specify more than one amino acid assuming only the first two nucleotides are considered. In these cases, one cannot outrightly specify the amino acid the genetic codes are coding for without knowing the last nucleotide of the codes. For example, UU can be for Phenylalanine or Leucine, CA can be for Histidine or Glutamine, etc.

b) From the table of genetic codes, the first two nucleotides of Arginine can be either of CG or AG, that of Serine can be either of UC or AG while that Leucine can be either of CU or UU. Only in these 3 cases would one fail to know which are the first two nucleotides assuming the name of the amino acids are given.

See the attached image for the genetic code.
