Assume that the average protein in E.coli consists of a chain of 400 amino acids.  Now, a single amino acid present in the protein requires a codon to code for it. A codon consists of 3 nucleotides. This shows that a protein of length 400 amino acids will require, 400 codons to code for it, that is, 1200 (3 x 400) nucleotides are required. We know that the length of the E.coli genome on average is 5 x 10^{6} base pairs.

1200 nucleotides = 1 protein

5 x 10^{6} nucleotides = X no. of proteins

X = \frac{5\times 10^{6} \times 1}{1200} = 4167

The answer is 4167 proteins.

Explanation:

Since the research question has to do with likely defense mechanisms of nematodes against the traps and death from Arthrobotrys, option A seems like the most plausible option out of all the options.

Option B seems incomplete while C and D have no direct relation with defense mechanism of nematodes against Arthrobotrys.

These are the 13 different species of birds that are related in the Galapagos islands
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

<em>Darwin's finches</em>

Explanation:

Darwin's finches are the 13 different species of bird which he observed on the Galapagos island during his voyage on the H.M.S Beagle.  The study of these finches helped Darwin to propose the phenomenon of natural selection. According to Darwin, the 13 different types of finches arose because of the different modes of nutrition for the birds located on each island. Through natural selection, those traits evolved which made the species more adaptable to live on the particular island

What is the function of a radical current
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

A radical function contains a radical expression with the independent variable (usually x) in the radicand. Usually radical equations where the radical is a square root is called square root functions. The value of b tells us where the domain of the radical function begins.
