Flagella

Protists such as Choanoflagellates (closet of all species) have flagella at one end of their single celled body. These flagella’s have several hair like structure which are dense and long and are known as microvilli.  The flagella act as a pump and forces water across the microvilli and the microvilli then filter out food particles from the water.

What is a stop codon​
storchak [24]

Answer:

In the genetic code, a stop codon (or termination codon) is a nucleotide triplet within messenger RNA that signals a termination of translation into protein

Explanation:

Proteins are based on polypeptides, which are unique sequences of amino acids. Most codons in messenger RNA (from DNA) correspond to the addition of an amino acid to a growing polypeptide chain, which may ultimately become a protein. Stop codons signal the termination of this process by binding release factors, which cause the ribosomal subunits to disassociate, releasing the amino acid chain. While start codons need nearby sequences or initiation factors to start translation, a stop codon alone is sufficient to initiate termination.
