The attached picture shows how bacteria gain antibiotic resistance. Firstly, a few individuals attain a beneficial mutation in their genetic material that accords them the capability to survive in an antibiotic. The individuals are hence able to survive and reproduce more than those individuals without the mutation. There is, therefore, a genetic shift in the population in favor of the resistant genotype. After generations, the whole population becomes antibiotic resistant.
Taking into account the definition of density and Avogadro's Number, you take 2.0286×10²⁵ molecules of air.
<h3>What is density</h3>Density is defined as the property that matter, whether solid, liquid or gas, has to compress into a given space.
In other words, density is a quantity that allows us to measure the amount of mass in a certain volume of a substance.
Then, the expression for the calculation of density is the quotient between the mass of a body and the volume it occupies:
Avogadro's Number or Avogadro's Constant is called the number of particles that make up a substance (usually atoms or molecules) and that can be found in the amount of one mole of said substance. Its value is 6.023×10²³ particles per mole. Avogadro's number applies to any substance.
<h3>Amount of molecules of air</h3>In this case, you know that:
Replacing in the definition of density:
Solving:
mass= 0.97 ×1000 mL
<u><em>mass= 970 g</em></u>
Air has an average molar mass of 28.8 g per 1 mol. Then 970 grams are contained in 33.68 moles.
Now, considering the definition of Avogadro's number you can apply the following rule of three: If 1 mole of air contains 6.023×10²³ molecules, 33.68 moles contains how many molecules?
amount of molecules = (33.68 moles× 6.023×10²³ molecules)÷ 1 mole
<u><em>amount of molecules= 2.0286×10²⁵ molecules</em></u>
Finally, you take 2.0286×10²⁵ molecules of air.

Answer: A codon is found on the coding strand of double-stranded DNA and in the (single-stranded) mRNA. ... The anticodon is found on the tRNA and is the part that base-pairs with the codon (on the mRNA) in order to bring the appropriate amino acid to the ribosome to be added to the growing peptide chain.
