The reason why humming birds need long beaks is to be able to get the nectar from the flowers, kind of like how we need straws to drink out of to go cups. Humming birds also have very long tongues that also help this process. Since humming birds beaks help them get the food they need, it makes them more successful in their environment.
<span>Active and passive transport help to maintain homeostasis because they transport fluid/water/materials across the plasma lemma (cell membrane). All of these materials need to exist in certain ratios for the cell to function properly. </span>
A. Water falls from the atmosphere as rain, ice, or snow
Answer:
Type O
Expresses the B agglutinin
Expresses all the major antibodies
The most common US blood type
The universal donor
Type AB+
Expresses all of the major antigens
Expresses the D antigen
The least common US blood type
The universal acceptor
Expresses the Rh factor
Expresses A agglutinogen
Explanation:
Blood type is a grouping of blood into classes that have the presence or absence of antibodies and or antigens on the red blood cell surfaces
The class of blood determines whether the antigens are glycolipids, carbohydrates, proteins or glycoproteins of Type O
The blood type of a person is an inherited trait from both parental gene. There are various blood grouping system with the ABO and Rh systems being the most important as they determine the suitability of a given blood for transfusion.
Answer:
An amino acid can be encoded by more than one codon.
Explanation:
Codons are triplets of nucleotides in mRNA that are used for the protein synthesis (translation). A codon specifies a single amino acid, but there are exceptions. tRNA molecule contain anticodons, triplets of nucleotides that are complementary to codons. So, during the translation, tRNA carries the amino acid, that corresponds to the codon in mRNA.
Degenerate genetic code (more than one codon can code for the same amino acid) is important, because when point mutation occurs it is possible that the amino acid remains unchanged.
