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.

It would have 20 protons, 20 neutrons, and 20 electrons. Protons and electrons are USUALLY (I say usually because of the different types of atoms) the same as the atomic number. To find neutrons you take the atomic mass minus the atomic number. 40-20=20

As white light passes through a prism, the light is separated into the different colours of light that we see and this is called the visible spectrum. Each colour of light has a different wavelength. The wavelength is inversely proportional to the energy of that light. As the wavelength increases, the energy decreases and vice-versa. The relationship is:

E = h/λ, E is energy, h is Planck's constant, and λ is the wavelength.

Therefore, the answer is B) different amounts of energy in white light.
