Why are only four amino acids produced by 5 codons? I need this answer ASAP

Tom [10]3 years ago

Answer:

My answer (that the information we have about codon structure is limited to the observations we can make now) is similar to the first part of your answer: that the number of amino acids that can be encoded is a function of codon length, in that both imply the (circular) argument that we must need more than 14 amino acids (plus a start and a stop, making 16) because we observe three nucleotide codons rather than two nucleotide codons. It would be nice to have a noncircular argumentf for why the minimum number of distinct amino acids is more than 14, but that is beyond my ability to construct

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Possible feelings are dependent on an individual’s personality. An introvert would react far differently than an extrovert. Somebody who has a high sense of self esteem would react way differently than somebody with a low sense of self esteem. While those aren't the only two factors, there’s just too many to consider, from one individual to the next, and that’s not even including how an individual was raised.

In most psyche circles, it’s known as the five stages of grief.

Denial

Anger

Bargaining

Depression

Which statement describes potassium-argon dating?
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer: Potassium-40 decays into argon gas over time.

Explanation: Potassium-argon dating is a dating method used to determine the age of sedimentary rocks by comparing the proportion of K-40 to Ar-40 in a sample of rock, and knowing the decay rate of K-40.

Potassium-40 undergoes decay following first order kinetics as given below:

_{19}^{40}\textrm{K}\rightarrow _{18}^{40}\textrm{Ar}+_{0}^1e
