The correct answer is option C, Italy has experienced many earthquakes.

According to the theory of plate tectonics, Earth is an active planet. Its surface comprises various individual plates, which interact and move, continuously modifying and reshaping the outer layer of the Earth. Volcanoes and earthquakes both are the outcomes of the movement of tectonic plates.

Earthquakes take place on faults, strike-slip earthquakes take place on strike-slip faults, usual earthquakes take place on normal faults, and thrust earthquakes take place on reverse or thrust faults. When an earthquake takes place on one of these faults, the rock on one end of the fault slips in relation to the other.

Which of the following is not a true statement regarding the genetic code?
padilas [110]

Answer:

E. Each codon represents a different amino acid.

Explanation:

The genetic code refers to the set of rules guiding the translation of nucleotide bases in DNA or RNA into an amino acid sequence (proteins). The genetic code contains all the codons in the genome, which is a group of three nucleotide base (triplet-based). Each codon species a particular amino acid, however, more than one codon can code for a particular amino acid. This characteristics of the genetic code is called DEGENERACY.

The genetic code is said to be nearly universal because the same codon encodes the same amino acid in almost all living organisms with only few exceptions. The nonoverlapping nature of the genetic code refers to the fact the three bases of a codon are read independently from the bases of another codon i.e. codons do not overlap.

A codon represents one amino acid but more than one codon can represent the same amino acid. Hence, option E is untrue

Answer:

Vegetative propagation is the process of multiplication in which a portion of fragment of plant body functions as propagate and develops into a new individual.

Explanation:

  • Asexual or vegetative propagation of plant is that form of plant propagation in which the new individual arises from any vegetative part of  the parent and possesses exactly the same characteristic of the parent  plant.
  • Vegetative propagation can be carried out through roots as in <em>Dalbergia sissoo</em> (Shisham) ; <em>Psidium guajava</em> (Guava) etc; through stems as in <em>Solanum tuberosum</em> (potato) ; through leaves as in<em> Bryophyllum</em>.
  • Plants can be propagated artificially by following natural principle.
