The Exxon Valdez spilled more than 10 MILLION gallons of oil into the Prince William Sound, damaging marine life.

Ten million

On March 24, 1989, the oil truck Exxon Valdez reached Alaska's Prince William Sound, after leaving the Valdez Marine Terminal full of crude oil. At 12:04 am, the ship uncovered a reef, ripping open the hull and discharging nearly 10 million gallons of oil into the atmosphere. Initial acknowledgments by Exxon and the Alyeska Pipeline Company were inadequate to accommodate much of the spill, and a hurricane swept in soon after, spreading the oil extensively.

Eventually, more than 1,000 miles of coastline were polluted, and hundreds of thousands of species of plants and animals died damaging the marine life to the greatest extent.

How is information translated during protein synthesis? Apex
krok68 [10]

Translation of mRNA into a peptide occurs in sequences of 3 nucleotides called codons. Each codon codes for one amino acid. Therefore, as the ribosome reads the codon sequence, it recruits a t-RNA carrying the respective amino acid. A peptide bond is thereafter formed on the growing amino acid chain before the ribosome translocates to read the next codon. This continues until the ribosome reads a stop codon signaling the end of the peptide.

​the symptoms of ____ are caused by progressive demyelination of nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. ​multiple sclerosis ​
nika2105 [10]

The correct answer is multiple sclerosis.

The MS or multiple sclerosis refers to a demyelinating disorder in which the insulating envelopes of the nervous tissues in the spinal cord and the brain get destructed.

This destruction disturbs the tendency of the components of the nervous system to interact, leading to an array of symptoms and signs, involving mental, physical, and on certain occasions psychiatric issues.
