In a DNA molecule, three nucleotides make up a codon. A codon is creates a specific amino acid. Therefore, in order to work this out, we must calculate the number of codons that will not be affected by the mutation. This is done by finding the highest number that is divisible by 3 but less than 85. This can be done by:
85 / 3 = 28.333
So 28 codons will not be affected.

Enkephalins and endorphins are peptides that act like morphine. True or False
mariarad [96]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Enkephalins and endorphins are endogenous peptides while morphine is an exogenous peptide.

Enkephalins and endorphins are powerful analgesics 18 to 500 times more than morphine. Hence, morphine is less analgesic than enkephalins and endorphins.

Enkephalins and endorphins act on the  mu, kappa , delta receptors and morphine also acts on the same receptors. All of them has same effects on the body.

Hence, Enkephalins and endorphins are peptides that act like morphine.
