The genetic code is broken down into a series of codons on the mRNA. Each codon consists of 3 nucleotides which (normally) correspond to a single amino acid (e.g. AUG codes for methionine). I say normally because you can also have a codon indicate a stop codon (so no amino acid will be inserted and instead the polypeptide chain will terminate). This mRNA molecule with its list of codons will instruct a ribosome to synthesize a protein according to this code.
This code is the set of rules - based on the triplet or codon. This triplet code is universal - all organisms use the same codons to specify the placement of each of the 20 amino acids in a protein.
yes all living things are organisms
Answer: 0.69 m/ mile.
Explanation:
The altitude gradient between two cities X and Y = 
Given: Two cities are separated by 200 miles.
City X has an altitude of 122 meters.
City Y has an altitude of 260 meters.
The altitude gradient between two cities X and Y =
Hence, the altitude gradient between the two cites = 0.69 m/ mile.
The economic implications have to do with agriculture. Look what happens when there is an outbreak of mad cow or hoof and mouth disease. Thousands of farmers lose their herds and are financially devastated. This also affects the consumer because the decrease in supply will drive up the costs. But, it could also have the opposite effect. If consumers no longer feel safe, then they will stop eating the particular food and the farmers will lose money.
The same is true with disease in plants. Tobacco mosaic virus can devastate crops, resulting in huge economic losses. On a grand scale, crop diseases can affect human history. Potato blight caused suffering and death in Ireland and resulted in massive migration. Many descendents from Irish folks in the U.S. wouldn't be here if it weren't for a crop disease.
