Question

Which of the following statements is true? Group of answer choices All forms of life employ the same genetic code mRNA is the only type of RNA found in the living system A typical human liver cell has one set of chromosomes Organisms interact but do not affect their environment

Answer 1

Answer:

All forms of life employ the same genetic code

Explanation:

The genetic code refers to the set of rules that facilitates the translation of nucleotide sequences into amino acids sequences (proteins). mRNA is read in a group of three nucleotides called CODON, which specifies a particular amino acid. The totality of all codons makes up the genetic code.

However, one of the characteristics of the genetic cos is its UNIVERSAL nature. The genetic code is said to be nearly universal meaning that the genetic code is the same in almost all living organisms with few exceptions. For example, AUG codon encodes Methionine amino acid in all forms of life.

Hence, All forms of life employ the same genetic code is TRUE. Note that, tRNA and rRNA are other types of RNA found in living systems. Also, liver cells are diploid i.e. has two sets of chromosomes. Lastly, interacting organisms affect their environment
