Answer:

Organic compounds→ nucleotides→ RNA→ universal code.

Organic compounds are the compounds made by living organisms with at least one molecule of carbon linked to different elements like hydrogen, oxygen, or nitrogen.for example: nucleotides.

A nucleotide is the monomer units of nucleic acids- DNA and RNA. Each nucleotide is made up of organic compounds- sugar, a phosphate molecule and nitrogenous bases (adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine and uracil).  

The arrangement of nitrogenous bases in DNA decides the fate of proteins as the sequence of these bases acts as code arranged in the triplet called "codons" which code for specific amino acids.

Thus, Organic compounds→ nucleotides→ RNA→ universal code is the correct answer.

rewona [7]

Tumors are caused due to uncontrolled growth of cells. Thus a mitosis inhibitor could be effective medication to treat tumor because it will inhibit cell proliferation and development of tumor.

Explanation:

  • Tumors are  mass of tissue that developed as a result of uncontrolled cell division.
  • Cell division is a continuous process in our body and it replaces old and damaged cells with new one.
  • But in case of tumors the cell division  takes place in uncontrollable manner and continues to add cells to the tissue while the cell death do not take place.
  • Ultimately an unwanted overgrown mass of cell develops that hinders with the normal functioning of the body.
  • Tumor are classified as benign tumor and malignant tumors.
  • Both these tumors need to be treated as they develop as an unwanted hindrance to the body metabolism.
  • The best way to check the growth of tumor is to inhibit the cell division in the tumor tissue.
  • Thus a mitotic inhibitor which will inhibit mitosis could be a good medication for treatment of tumors.
