Question:All known organisms use genetic information to produce protein molecules via the same genetic code. This finding strongly supports the hypothesis that __________.
a) the earliest macromolecules probably arose when lightning struck an oxygen-free atmosphere
b) all organisms are descended from one or a few common ancestors
c) the genetic code readily evolves by natural selection
d) there's only one possible way to encode information in a macromolecule
Answer:
b) all organisms are descended from one or a few common ancestors
Explanation:
Protein synthesis occurs when the nucleotide sequence of the mRNA is read in the form of genetic codes. A specific genetic code specifies the same amino acid in all living beings. For example, the code "UUU" codes for phenylalanine in all the living beings irrespective of their species. This suggests that all the life forms have originated from one or few common ancestors and the genetic code has been preserved during the course of evolution of various species.
Answer:
Most peroxidases are ferric heme proteins; one notable exception being the glutathione peroxidase, which is a selenium-containing enzyme. They are present in virtually all living species.
Protein has many roles in your body. It helps repair and build your body's tissues, allows metabolic reactions to take place and coordinates bodily functions. In addition to providing your body with a structural framework, proteins also maintain proper pH and fluid balance.
Well in order for chemical digestion to occur period, a enzyme is needed.
In the mouth this enzyme is amylase

9. A keystone is a organism that helps define the entire ecosystem, and if the species were to disappear from the ecosystem no other species would be able to fill its ecological niche the ecosystem would be forced to radically change allowing new and possibly invasive species to populate the habitat.
