Answer:

The correct answer will be- codons and each codon specific for amino acids.

Explanation:

Deoxyribose nucleic acid is the genetic material of the organism which provides instructions for the organism.  DNA is made up of nucleotide monomers which are composed of five-carbon sugar deoxyribose, a phosphate group and four types of nitrogenous bases (adenine, guanine, cytosine and thymine).

It is the arrangement of these nitrogenous bases which provide codes to the organism as it forms mRNA molecule through transcription. The sequence of the nitrogenous bases in mRNA is read by the ribosome during translation.

The ribosome reads the bases in triplets called "codon" which code for a specific amino acid. If the sequence of the base changes, therefore, the amino acid also changes. These amino acids bond to each other by peptide bond and form a protein molecule.

Based on the weather map above, which statement is true based on the weather map?
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

A warm front is moving towards South Carolina bringing rainy conditions

Explanation:

From this weather map, we can see that South Carolina will soon be under the influence of a warm front. The warm front is moving towards this state, and it is coming from southeastern direction, thus it has been formed over warm waters. Because it has been formed over warm waters, this front is warm and very moist which will result in lot of rainfall once it comes upon a natural barrier to cause condensation, and the Appalachian Mountains will do just that, thus South Carolina will receive a lot of rainfall.
