Answer:
Explanation:
The non-coding DNA sequences forms the part of the organism's DNA. It is the part of the human genome which does not encode for any protein sequence. Some of the non-coding DNA may be transcribed into into any of the functional non-coding RNA molecules such as ribosomal RNA, transfer RNA and regulatory RNA. Other functions of the non-coding DNA involve translational and transcriptional regulation of the protein coding sequences, origin of DNA replication process, scaffold attachment, telomeres and centromeres.
Answer:
B. the appearance of lichens and mosses in an area where a glacier has recently melted away
Explanation:
Ecological succession, which refers to the series of changes that occurs over time in an ecosystem, can be of two types namely: primary succession and secondary succession.
Primary succession is a succession that involves an area where no form of life has grown previously, hence, the area of land is barren e.g bare rock. Primary succession is first colonized by species called PIONEER SPECIES e.g. lichens, mosses etc.
According to this question, "the appearance of lichens and mosses (pioneer species) in an area where a glacier has recently melted away" is an example of PRIMARY SUCCESSION.
Answer:
The start codon is AUG
Explanation:
A three nucleotide sequence (represented with bases) of a DNA or a RNA which translates to a specific amino acid is referred to as codon. To begin the translation into a new protein, the first three nucleotide is always AUG (called the START codon) which is the codon for methionine.
NOTE: AUG is the initial of the bases; Adenine, Uracil and Guanine
