All matching codons in all organisms DNA code for the same amino acids.

Option D.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Codons are defined as group of three nucleotide bases that forms a triplet, and codes for a particular amino acid.

There are four nitrogen bases, so four possible nucleotides. Among them, 3 are stop codons, rest 61 are codons denoting the 20 amino acids. Codons are discrete, meaning no same codon codes for more than 1 amino acid.

And these codons are universal. It means, like AUG denotes for amino acid methionine, and that is same in bacteria, as well as in all organisms. So they are universal.

Excess post-exercise oxygen consumption is the extra amount of oxygen consumed after the completion of exercise and before respi
Scilla [17]

The extra oxygen is used to restore muscle fibers to their pre-exercise state by doing all of the following except facilitating calcium release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum in the muscle fiber. Thus, the correct option is B.

<h3>What is Respiration?</h3>

Respiration may be defined as the process of acquiring oxygen from outside the body and utilizing it in the process of breakdown of food sources for cellular needs.

The extra oxygen works in the muscle fiber by replenishing the ATP, restocking the myoglobin, and supplying the ATP used to replenish glycogen stores in the muscle fiber.

Therefore, the correct option for this question is B.

Explain why it is important to animals for the major carbohydrate storage polymer, glycogen, to be branched rather than unbranch
kolezko [41]

Answer: A branched polymer has greater terminal glucose residues in comparison to a unbranched polymer of the same molecular weight resulting in a higher number of terminal glucose residues required to be mobilized when energy is demanded. Enzyme and polymer evolve together to meet the dire need for rapid mobilization.

Explanation:

In comparison to an unbranched polymer, a branched polymer has a more compact and symmetrical molecular conformation with a greater terminal glucose residue. It can be broken down easily when energy is needed. For instance, the branched form of starch, amylopetin, in the small intestine starch is hydrolyzed to form glucose which is converted to biochemical energy and stored for later use.

Answer:

They camouflage

Explanation:

The peppered moths adapt to their surroundings. They blend in with their surroundings to avoid being eaten by their predators. Blending in with their surrounding also helps them to sneak up on and catch their prey.

I'm not too sure why they lay 100 eggs at a time but i think it's because the parents want to increase the survival of their eggs. Eggs sometimes are eaten by other animals and the parents want at least a few to survive.

aev [14]
The cell is in METAPHASE PHASE OF MEIOSIS.  At this phase, the pairs of homologous chromosomes moves to the cell equator. These pairs of homologous chromosomes will be separated in anaphase I. The number of chromosomes remains constant until the first cell division is completed, then the chromosomes will be divided into two daughter cells.
