Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

The phenomenon is best explained by the fact that the <u>genetic codes are degenerates</u>. In other words, more than one codon can specify for the same amino acid being carried by the tRNA.

<em>The base-pairing rule between the third nucleotide of a codon and that of the anticodon on the tRNAs loosens off. For example, GUU, GUC, and GUA all specify for the amino acid valine while GCU, GCC, and GCA all specify for alanine. </em>

solniwko [45]
Meristematic tissue have the ability to divide themselves. It is the primary site for cell division and cell differentiation. It produces the new cells and are called growing tissue in plants. The new cells may or may not divide. It is the source of the regenerative potential of the plant.  
<span>
Cancerous cells can originate anywhere in the body and can spread into or invade adjoining tissues. It keeps growing and dividing relentlessly to form lumps. It can also break off and travel to distant tissues. Cancer cells rejects signals from other  cells.</span>

En un experimento, se prueba el efecto de cambiar el pH en una reacción enzimática. ¿Cuál podría ser una variable dependiente en
stich3 [128]

Answer:

velocidad de reacción

Explanation:

Las enzimas son proteínas que catalizan reacciones, es decir, aumentan la velocidad de reacción. Si se quiere evaluar el efecto de cambiar el pH en una reacción enzimática, se debe realizar la reacción a distintos valores de pH e ir midiendo la velocidad de reacción. Por lo tanto:

pH: variable independiente

velocidad de reacción: variable dependiente

La velocidad de reacción podría medirse a través de la cantidad de producto que se forma por unidad de tiempo, o a través de la cantidad de sustrato que se consume por tiempo.
