Organic compounds and inorganic compounds differ from each other. Three differences are :
1. Organic compound has carbon and hydrogen atoms while the inorganic compound has other atoms.
2. Organic compounds make the important biomolecules such as amino acids, proteins, DNA, RNA, etc whereas the inorganic compounds make the salts, acids, bases, etc.
3. Organic compounds have carbon hydrogen bonds or carbon carbon bonds. These types are not formed in inorganic compounds.

Answer:

The correct answer is - option b. to generate a protein with a run of consecutive glutamines.

Explanation:

The initiation code AUG is the code for methionine and as well as the initiation code for the particular protein or peptide chain. In this protein, there is a repeat of CAG is increased with the initiation code so, even though they are in zero reading frame they code for their amino acid which is glutamine.

motikmotik

Answer:

B.) Diffusion

Explanation:

Since this is oxygen, not water, and it is going from an area of high concentration to low, it is moving with its concentration gradient, it would be diffusion. If it were water, not oxygen, then it would be osmosis, and lastly, if it were moving from an area of low to high concentration, that would be active transport. Semipermeability is a characteristic of cell membranes, not a method of movement.
