new cell contain?
Biology

In mitosis, the amount of starting and ending chromosomes are the same, this means mother, and daughter cells are genetically the same.

In this case, if you start with 12 chromosomes pair, you will end with 12 pairs too.

Meiosis is the kind of division in which the mother cell has doubled DNA than the daughter cell.

What are three questions that focus on the cause and effect relationship between the genetic code and gene expression, mechanism
natka813 [3]

Three questions that focuses on the cause and effect relationship between the genetic code and gene expression, mechanisms of gene regulation and/or the role of DNA segments that is not involved in coding the proteins are:

i. Illustrate the process of translation and explain it with the help of a diagram.

ii. What are codons? Name the stop codons in eukaryotes.

iii. What are exons and introns? Explain what happens to the introns during the process of transcription and translation?

How does gulliver treat the lilliputians during the first weeks on the island?
Tpy6a [65]

Gulliver was a surgeon and he was on the ship named “Antelope”. When a violent storm came and the ship sank, all the crew members were engulfed in the ocean. Gulliver somehow managed and swam to the shore.

He was so tired that soon he fell into a deep sleep and when he woke he saw that he was caught and chained by little men called Lilliputians who lived there.

At first, when he tried to free himself, they were frightened of him and fire dozens of arrows in to his chest, hands, and arms but later they treated him very well. Gulliver admitted that first he want that take people in his hand and crush them but when they treated him well, he also treated them well. He was impressed by their nice hospitality they showed.

The genetic code is redundant. What is meant by this statement?
storchak [24]

Answer:

This means that one amino acid can be coded by more that one codon.

Explanation:

A triplet code that code for an amino acid during translation is called genetic code. The genetic code is said to be redundant because a single amino acid can be coded by more that one triplet codon.  

So there can be synonymous codon for one amino acid. For example, leucine, serine, and arginine have 6 synonymous codons.

The genetic code is unambiguous also because each triplet codon can only code for a particular single amino acid. Genetic code is also universal which means the same code is used in all life forms.
