Answer:

X - rays

Explanation:

One astronomer is studying the nature of an electromagnetic wave emitted by hot gases in the universe.

We know that frequency is defined as the number of oscillations or vibrations per unit time.

We have to write name of the electromagnetic wave whose frequency is higher than visible light but lower than gamma rays.

Frequency of visible light is 4\times 10^{14}\ Hz\ to\ 8\times 10^{14}\ Hz

Frequency of gamma rays is more than 3\times 10^{17}\ Hz

The frequency of X-rays lies between visible light and gamma rays i.e. the frequency of X - rays is in between  3\times 10^{16}\ Hz\ to\ 3\times 10^{19}\ Hz

Hence, the correct option is (A) " X - rays ".

Eukaryotic mrnas frequently have multiple 'additional' in-frame stop codon present after the first stop codon. what, if any, fun
kipiarov [429]

Well, it is possible that those stop codons have dual functions. They can act as stop signals or, on the other hand, they can be used to incorporate amino acids.

Other explanation is that multiple stop codons may reduce the  rate of nonsense mutation.
