Answer:

The correct answer is "silent; codon usage".

Explanation:

Silent mutations are changes in the genome sequence that do not result in any observable change in the phenotype of the individual. A common silent mutation is the change of a nucleotide in a codon that results in another codon that is translated into the same amino acid. The fate of silent mutations over many generations is determined by the codon usage of the species. If the silent mutation results is a codon that is not normally used by the species, it is very likely that it will get lost over time.

Pure water is neutral. What is the appropriate justification for this? A. Water has equal H+ and OH- ions, making its pH 7, whic
Pani-rosa [81]
The correct solution for this is explained the first option. Since water has an equivalent amount or number of H ions and OH ions, pure water itself is not slightly acidic nor basic. This equality of ions, causes the pH of water to be around the mid point of the pH scale which goes from 0 - 14, and thus is 7. This is a neutral pH.

Describe the forms that water takes through out the water cycle
Aleks [24]

Gas: when the water has evaporated and is now out in the air. Water molecules move super fast during this stage.

Liquid: Water molecules have a good amount of space to move around, but they aren’t traveling as fast as they do in the gastric state.

Solid: ice in other words, the water molecules are super tight and compact, but are still moving around, just not very fast.
