There are only about 40 different tRNAs in a cell even though 61 codons code for amino acids. This discrepancy can be attributed

to the fact that the first nucleotide in the anticodon can base-pair with more than one nucleotide in the codon. This phenomenon is known as __________ and is, in part, due to __________ and the presence of __________ at this position in some tRNA molecules.

Answer:

The correct answer is - wobble; the curvature of the anticodon loop; inosine.

Explanation:

The wobble phenomenon or hypothesis tells that why there are multiple codons are present for a single amino acid. 20  amino acids are coded by 61 codons. It states that tRNA can identify and attach to more than one amino acid due to the curvature of the anticodon loop.

The curvature of the anticodon loop is that the base at the 1st position on the anticodon to binding but the less-precise base pairs that can arise between the 3rd base of the codon. The inosine is the nucleoside that presents in a position in the curvature of the anticodon loop and its position responsible for wobble as well.

Colt1911 [192]

When grilling chicken using charcoal fire, the energy transformation that takes place starts from chemical energy, to radiant energy and then thermal energy. The combustion reaction of the charcoal fire converts the chemical energy into heat. The charcoal fire is considered as radiant energy. Lastly, burning fuels like coal or wood produces thermal energy, and that thermal energy is basically the reason why the chicken was cooked even without directly touching the fire.

A species of moth has a 2 varieties of wing color: brown and white. As winter approaches, the trees where the moths live loose t
Morgarella [4.7K]

Assuming that this question makes reference to the survivability of the two moth variations, we can confirm that the brown-colored moth will be better adapted to survive in the winter months.

<h3>Why are the brown moths more likely to survive?</h3>

This has to do with their ability to better hide from predators. As described in the question, their primary predator are birds that hunt them while resting on the tree bark. This means that the white-colored moths will stand out against the dark tree bark and be easier prey for the birds. This will eventually lead to all the moths in the area being brown-colored through the process of natural selection.  

Therefore, we can confirm that the brown-colored moth will be better adapted to survive in the winter months due to their ability to hide from predators.

What should you do if every dilution of your sample results in a plate that is too few to count (tftc)?
lyudmila [28]

When every dilution of your sample results in a plate that is too few to count we should filter the original sample and use most probable number method .

Probable number method count and determine the number of bacteria in a culture, plate aliquots of the dilutions onto agar with sterile pipettes, spread with glass sticks, incubate at 37°C and count the number of colonies. It is imperative that you utilize your best culture technique.

Not all bacterial cells produce colonies, as some bacteria tend to clump or aggregate, and some are nonviable. For this reason results are reported as colony forming units (CFU)/ml of bacterial culture. Ideally only plates with 25-250 colonies are used.
