How many codons equals 1 amino acid?

Biology
1 answer:
kondaur [170]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation: The nucleotide triplet that encodes an amino acid is called a codon. Each group of three nucleotides encodes one amino acid. Since there are 64 combinations of 4 nucleotides taken three at a time and only 20 amino acids, the code is degenerate (more than one codon per amino acid, in most cases)

aliina [53]

Answer:

What the doctor <u>should</u> recommend is: washing hands frequently, especially after touching a lesion , taking acyclovir for a 6- to 12-month period , and always wearing a condom when having sexual intercourse. What he <u>shouldn't</u> recommend is taking penicillin daily for the next year.

Explanation:

Genital Herpes is a viral disease that is frequently transmitted through sexual intercourse and causes infected sores, ulcers and cuts.

While the treatment for herpes can reduce the symptoms, the virus remains latent in the body and will most likely re-appear to cause the same symptoms.

Even when inactive, the virus can be transmitted, so the only way to prevent the spread of herpes is by using condoms or dental dams when engaging in sexual relationships.

To treat herpes, the best option is acyclovir -an antiviral-.

Penicillin WOULD NOT WORK because it is an antibiotic and thus it only kills bacteria (not viruses).

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

This is placing a cell in hyper tonic solution.Therefore, the water potential of the cells is higher than the environment. Hence it lose water to the environment which has a  lower water potential, but higher solute potential.

Therefore the loss of fluid by the cell leads to shrinking of the cytosol and it containing organelles. Later the cells collapse.

<u>Spanish</u>

Esto es colocar las células en una solución hipertónica. Por lo tanto, el potencial hídrico de las células es mayor que el del medio ambiente. Por lo tanto, perder agua al medio ambiente reducirá el potencial hídrico, pero aumentará el potencial de soluto.

Por lo tanto, la pérdida de líquido por parte de la célula conduce a la contracción del citosol y que contiene orgánulos.
