Answer:

1 - (\frac{61}{64})^n

Explanation:

Given

There are three stop codon

TAA, TAG, TGA.

Out of 64 available codons, 3 are stop codon thus the remaining are non-stop codon.

So the probability of choosing a non stop codon is

\frac{61}{64}

Let us suppose the number of trials are "x" then the probability of choosing a non stop codon is  

(\frac{61}{64})^x\\

Probability of choosing a stop codon is equal to

1 - probability of choosing a non stop codon

1 - (\frac{61}{64})^n

How would the body most likely respond to the condition illustrated
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

A) Faster blood flow: A faster blood flow means the heart pumps blood with more power. Pumping blood to fast for too long can damage the heart muscle and interfere with its normal electrical signals, which can result in a dangerous heart rhythm disorder.

B) Infection: infection is caused by invasion of the body by external microorganisms. Disease can arise if the host's protective immune mechanisms are compromised and the organism inflicts damage on the host.

C) vomiting: This is an involuntary, forced expulsion of stomach contents usually through the mouth or nose. Body's reaction can be aspiration, electrolyte and water loss, damage to the enamel of the teeth, tear of the esophageal mucosa etc.

D) High blood pressure: This is due to the heart pumping blood at high pressure putting a strain on the walls of the blood vessels. In some cases, people with high blood pressure may have a pounding feeling in their head or chest, a feeling of lightheadedness or dizziness, or other signs.
