The name for all organisms that get their nutrients and energy from other organism are called parasites.
Answer:
The complimentary strand of codons would be CAG-UAC-AAA-UCA-AGG-GAU-AUC.
Explanation:
C (Cytosine) pairs to G (Guanine).
Think of it as *C*ar in the *G*arage.
A (Adenine) pairs to U (Uracil).
Think of it as *A*pples *U*nder the tree.
Answer:
No, viruses are not considered cells as they're parasitic and can't live on their own. A virus has to infect living cells in order to survive, so it's not considered a cell.
In complementary base pairing, the G pairs with C, and A pairs with T. Given that this be the rule, the complementary nucleotides for your sequence would be as follows: CGATTAACGTAGGCA.
With regards to proofreading, mutations in cell division occur once in around every 100,000 base pairs. If this happens, the enzyme that pairs the nucleotides to form DNA, called DNA polymerase, detects the error and moves back along the strand, it then cuts the incorrect nucleotide and replaces it with the correct one, fixing the error and continuing with the DNA synthesis.
This process corrects the majority of errors in DNA synthesis, but some errors can still be missed by the DNA polymerase, this is then rectified by a protein complex which binds to the incorrect pairing until anther complex, comes along and cuts that particular section of DNA out, which is then replaced by a new section of correct nucleotides synthesized by the polymerase enzyme, the two sections at either end that were cut is then sealed by ligase, an enzyme which essentially "glues" the DNA stands back together.
My apologies for the long answer, I hope I answered your question and that you understand it well enough.
The scientists who provided this hypothesis had an idea that the species evolved in order to accommodate their needs on certain islands. For instance, an example is beak size of certain birds which Darwin thought that this was to eat certain foods.
