C. Because they contain water ammonia, and methane
Answer:
The start codon is AUG
Explanation:
A three nucleotide sequence (represented with bases) of a DNA or a RNA which translates to a specific amino acid is referred to as codon. To begin the translation into a new protein, the first three nucleotide is always AUG (called the START codon) which is the codon for methionine.
NOTE: AUG is the initial of the bases; Adenine, Uracil and Guanine
Answer:
The horses developed an oxygen debt when they exercise because they suffered from Exercise-Induced Pulmonary Hemorrhage (EIPH).
Explanation:
A temporary shortage of oxygen in the body tissues during physical exertion such as exercise or a sudden burst of activity is referred to as oxygen shortage.
Horses (compared to humans) are uniquely designed to experience little or none of this.
When the body takes up oxygen, it reacts with glucose to produce energy. This is called Aerobic respiration.
There is also another procedure that the body uses to produce energy. This occurs when glucose is broken down in the cells. After this happens, lactic acid is created but cannot be stored in the body and must be expelled.
This interval when energy is produced without the presence of oxygen is called "oxygen debt".
When a horse is fit, its breathing quickly returns to normal. The longer the time taken for the breathing to return to normal, the less fit the horse is.
One of the factors that can reduce the fitness of a horse is the Exercise-Induced Pulmonary Hemorrhage (EIPH).
This occurs when blood vessle in the lung ruptures causing blood to bleed into the airways. So blood occupies space where oxygen should have. This reduced the amount of oxygen delivered to the blood stream. Hence the oxygen debt takes longer to be repaid.

Answer:
All living organisms share several key characteristics: order, sensitivity/ response to their environment, reproduction, growth and development, regulation, homeostasis, and energy processing. When viewed together, these characteristics serve to define life.

Answer:
The correct answer is - option B. They are small because they lack a nucleus.
Explanation:
Red blood cells or erythrocytes are specialized cell that produce in bone marrow and have specific role such as carrying oxygen from lungs to deliver it to the various organs and carry out carbon dioxide.
In mammals these cells lack cell organelles such as nucleus and mitochondria, a major factor that determined its smaller size. The size of RBC are move through narrow vessels throughout a organism because of its specific size and shape that provide it space for hemoglobin and allow to be flexible and bend to move through narrow vessels.
Thus, the correct answer is : option B. They are small because they lack a nucleus.
