Answer:

The genetic code only consists of 4 letters of A T C and G. That means it is a VERY simple language. Combinations of three of these letters (codons) are translated into functional information in the form of amino acids. Each three letters = one amino acid.

Although the code seems simple, the information that can be derived from it is highly complex, making an entire organisms.

Take for example a simple 4 letter sequence of letters. ACTG, AGTC, AATG, etc. There are 256 potential combinations, just in a sequence of 4. Imagine in humans where there are THREE BILLION letters! The possible combinations are essentially endless.

What two characteristics do fungi lack that forced them to become decomposers?? Please help :) **25 points**

Fungi lacks the ability to produce their own food because they do not have chloroplast which is needed to obtain energy from the sun and convert it into food. Also fungi lack ability to fix nitrogen which has to be incorporated into their food. They also can not fix carbon and utilize it to produce food. Because of these they have to depend on dead organic matters for food.
