In the DNA structuring, there are four nitrogen bases involved that are combined in a structure containing diffrent bases. Each codon is unique to one another and represents another material. Since the two codons are not exactly the same, the answer is no.

Answer:

The same amino acid is not specified.

Explanation:

Translation may be defined as the production of protein product from the RNA molecules with the help of enzymes and chemicals. Genetic code may be defined as the nucleotide triplet of nucleic acids that can be inherited in the organisms.

Each codon specifies a single amino acid. GGU codes for glycine whereas CGU codes for arginine. Glycine is the smallest amino acid.

Thus, the codon mutation from GGU to CGU doesnot specify the same amino acid.

Pulmonary arteries transport ________.

andrezito [222]

Answer:

Explanation:

I would say this because the pulmonary circulation only transports deoxygenated blood. And this blood gets transported to the lungs so the lungs can absorb oxygen and release carbon dioxide. I am not sure about this one though. This is what I think.
