How many amino acids would be encoded in the sequence 5′ AUGUUACGGAAU 3′ by a non-overlapping and maximally overlapping code?

1 answer:

5 0

In non-overlapping code there would be four amino acids, because there are just four triplets in the code, of which none is the stop codone. For maximally overlapping code there would be ten amino acids encoded, the four starting from the first letter: AUG, UUA, CGG, AAU, then three starting from the second letter: UGU, UAC, GGA, and the three starting from the third letter: GUU, ACG, GAA.

when Na lost e it shrank and the CI+ grew in size does that say anything about the location of the electrons before and after it

ValentinkaMS [17]

We know that electrons are occupied on a cloud surrounding the nucleus. So which means that the bigger the electron cloud, the bigger the number of electrons. So in this case, since Na shrank so it lost some electrons. And since Cl+ grew in size of the electron cloud so electron was added to it.

  3. Compare the amount of energy that can be stored in ATP and glucose. How does the cell use each of these molecules to store

bogdanovich [222]

3. Cells use glucose to store large amounts of energy for long period of time.
In contrast, ATP is used to store smaller amounts of energy that will be used in the next few seconds.
A glucose molecule can store more than 90 times the energy of a ATP molecules.

4. The fact that the potted plant is in air tight jar affect the process of photosynthesis. The plant is airtight jar which means that the plant is not able to breath and run out of CO2 to produce sugars. So the plant wouldn't be able to complete photosynthesis.

Choose one region on the world map. How does the climate their differ during El Niño and La Niña?

ratelena [41]

Answer:What are El Niño and La Niña?

El Niño and La Niña are opposite phases of a natural climate pattern across the tropical Pacific Ocean that swings back and forth every 3-7 years on average. Together, they are called ENSO (pronounced “en-so”), which is short for El Niño-Southern Oscillation.

The ENSO pattern in the tropical Pacific can be in one of three states: El Niño, Neutral, or La Niña. El Niño (the warm phase) and La Niña (the cool phase) lead to significant differences from the average ocean temperatures, winds, surface pressure, and rainfall across parts of the tropical Pacific. Neutral indicates that conditions are near their long-term average.

What happens during El Niño and La Niña?

During El Niño, the surface winds across the entire tropical Pacific are weaker than usual. Ocean temperatures in the central and eastern tropical Pacific Ocean are warmer than average, and rainfall is below average over Indonesia and above average over the central or eastern Pacific.

Rising air motion (which is linked to storms and rainfall) increases over the central or eastern Pacific, and surface pressure there tends to be lower than average. Meanwhile, an increase in sinking air motion over Indonesia leads to higher surface pressure and dryness.

Anomalous ocean warming in the central and eastern Pacific (orange) help to shift a rising branch of the Walker Circulation to east of 180°, while sinking branches shift to over the Maritime continent and northern South America.

During La Niña, it’s the opposite. The surface winds across the entire tropical Pacific are stronger than usual, and most of the tropical Pacific Ocean is cooler than average. Rainfall increases over Indonesia (where waters remain warm) and decreases over the central tropical Pacific (which is cool). Over Indonesia, there is more rising air motion and lower surface pressure. There is more sinking air motion over the cooler waters of the central and eastern Pacific.

Generalized Walker Circulation (December-February) anomaly during La Niña events, overlaid on map of average sea surface temperature anomalies. Anomalous ocean cooling (blue-green) in the central and eastern Pacific Ocean and warming over the western Pacific Ocean enhance the rising branch of the Walker circulation over the Maritime Continent and the sinking branch over the eastern Pacific Ocean. Enhanced rising motion is also observed over northern South America, while anomalous sinking motion is found over eastern Africa. NOAA Climate.gov drawing by Fiona Martin.

Between the warm phase (El Niño) and cool phase (La Niña), scientists describe conditions as “ENSO-neutral.” Neutral means that the temperatures, winds, convection (rising air), and rainfall across the tropical Pacific are near their long-term averages.
