The answer is true. During translation of mRNA, the nucleotides are read by the translation unit (ribosome and trna) in sequences of three (3). These sequences are referred to as codons. Codons code for amino acids. Some codons are start of stop codons meaning they initiate or terminate translation. Additionally, more that one codon could code for one amino acid.

What facts did Redi's, Spallanzani's, and Pasteur's experiments establish? What broader scientific understanding about life did
miss Akunina [59]
These scientists all carried out experiments in accordance with the basic biological principle that life comes from pre-existing life. They investigated the theory of spontaneous generation and proved that life comes from life.

This also demonstrates that science is a way of knowing because they used what they saw in these experiments in other situations as well. They became able to do this only because they knew about this information and they got to know this information through science.

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

The correct answer is option d)"the percentage of pink flowers should increase over time".

Explanation:

In this study it is stated that two factors affect the flower coloration of <em>Claytonia virginica</em>: slugs preference of eating pink-flowering plants and bees preference of pollinating pink-flowering plants as well. If the researcher removes all slugs from the study population we can expect that the percentage of pink flowers should increase over time. The removal of the predator that prefers eating pink-flowering plants will favor the reproduction of this type of plants, which are also favored by bees pollination preference.
