Answer:

A DNA sequence codes for the same proteins in different species

Explanation:

All living organisms store their genetic information in DNA (genetic material). The manner through which information in the genes are encoded is the GENETIC CODE. The genetic code comprises of all the codons that specifies amino acids in living organisms. The genetic code has several characteristics, which includes that the GENETIC CODE IS UNIVERSAL

The genetic code is said to be universal because all known living organisms use the same genetic code to encode their genetic information. This means that a DNA sequence codes for the same proteins in several different species. For example, codon AUG encodes the amino acid METHIONINE in every living organism.

gtnhenbr [62]

Nothing

Explanation:

Mass of the sample = 500g

Decay rate per anum = 11%

Unknown:

Mass of sample remaining after 10yrs = ?

Solution:

  This is a simple percentages problem;

The radioactive sample loses \frac{11}{100 } x 500g of sample per year;

  this is a loss of 55g per year;

In 10years time, the sample would have lost 10 x 55g = 550g of element.

Since our sample is not up to 550g, then no amount of sample will remain after 10yrs.
