Answer: The maximum number of amino acids that could be coded is 2
Explanation:
- A codon in this microorganism is 2 bases instead of 3 bases .
- In order to encode a protein a sequence requires a start and stop codon
- If you assume no start codon: then only 2 bases would make up the stop codon.
- This leaves 4 bases which is 2 codons. This would encode 2 amino acids.
- If you assume a start and stop codon, then each codon would be allocated 2 base pairs each = 4 base pairs
- This only leaves 2 base pairs, a single codon which would only code for 1 amino acid
Stomata play an important role in photosynthesis as they allow the plant to absorb carbon dioxide from the environment. In exchange, stomata allow oxygen, which is a waste product of photosynthesis, to be released. In the process, water vapor is also lost as the internal parts of the leaves are exposed. To reduce exposure, stomata are found on the underside of the leaves. They are protected from the sun as excessive heat can increase the rate of water vapor leaving and thus wither the plant. Stomata also have guard cells around the epidermis that close when too much water is being lost.
The answer is B.
I think its safe to assume we all have had a cup of ice water. The ice always floats at the surface of the water.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Mitosis is a form of reproduction in simple living organisms. The outcome of mitosis is two identical daughter cells, and it follows the process described in the prompt. It doesn't require genetic material from another organism, so it's asexual reproduction.
