Answer:

The correct answer is c it inhibits the movement of small subunit relative to the large subunit.

Explanation:

According to the question the the poison that is added in vitro translation mixture containing mRNA molecules specific sequence result in formation of Met-lys dipeptide that remains attached to the ribosome.

    This means the translocation step that deals with movement of smaller subunit of ribosome to the next codon(Here to the third codon) is blocked.

How would scientists determine that punctuated equilibrium occurred by examining the fossil record?
Contact [7]

The scientist can tell that punctured equilibrium has occurred if they have examined the fossil fuels and can see that one organism rapidly evolved different characteristics.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

Punctured Equilibrium is an evolutionary theory which proposes that the species appearing in the fossil's record will show little evolutionary changes. In punctuated equilibrium, change occurs gradually, First very little change can be seen which later results in the occurrence of huge changes.

Such huge changes can be clearly seen by examining the fossil records.  Thus if there is any evolutionary changes seen in the fossil's record, the scientist can conclude the occurrence of punctuated equilibrium.
