He diagram shows the genetic code, which cells use to translate a nucleotide sequence into an amino acid sequence in a protein.

Scientists have studied a huge number of species and have found the same genetic code in use among nearly all of them.
A diagram of concentric circles shows the genetic code. The letters A, G, C, and U appear in the center of the diagram, and they are repeated in the next two circles. The outermost circle lists the names of amino acids.

Which inference is the most likely explanation for the universal properties of the genetic code?

A. Other, less useful, versions of the genetic code were eliminated gradually throughout the course of evolution.
B. The genetic code evolved very early in the history of life, and it was used by an ancient ancestor of all or nearly all living things.
C. The genetic code evolved relatively recently in bacteria, and then it quickly spread to all living things in all evolutionary lineages.
D. The genetic code evolved early in the history of animal evolution, and then it quickly spread to all other living things in other evolutionary lineages.

Answer:

I believe it is A, but I could be wrong.

Explanation:

I think this, because when it says, "Other, less useful, versions of the genetic code were eliminated gradually throughout the course of evolution", I think it referencing to the fact that all animals and etc, are made up of common codes, and how over time, through evolution, certain codes were eliminated, because creatures were evolving.

What effect does stabilizing selection have on variation in a population.
blondinia [14]

Answer:

Stabilizing selection results in a decrease of a population 's genetic variance when natural selection favors an average phenotype and selects against extreme variations. In directional selection, a population's genetic variance shifts toward a new phenotype when exposed to environmental changes.

Estimate the maximum time a person could listen to a sound of 87 decibels.
Kazeer [188]

The maximum time a person could listen to a sound of 87 decibels is: 8 hours

<h3>Meaning of Decibels</h3>

Decibels can be defined as the unit used by scientists to measure sound level.The values of Decibel ranges from a very low value to a very high value and the higher we get the more dangerous it is to our human ear.

In conclusion, The maximum time a person could listen to a sound of 87 decibels is 8 hours
