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.

Dynasties in Chinese history, or Chinese dynasties, were hereditary monarchical regimes that ruled over China during much of its history. From the inauguration of dynastic rule by Yu the Great in circa 2070 BC to the abdication of the Xuantong Emperor on 12 February 1912 in the wake of the Xinhai Revolution, China was ruled by a series of successive dynasties. Dynasties of China were not limited to those established by ethnic Han—the dominant Chinese ethnic group—and its predecessor, the Huaxia tribal confederation, but also included those founded by non-Han peoples.

Dividing Chinese history into periods ruled by dynasties is a common method of periodization utilized by scholars. Accordingly, a dynasty may be used to delimit the era during which a family reigned, as well as to describe events, trends, personalities, artistic compositions, and artifacts of that period.[8] For example, porcelain made during the Ming dynasty may be referred to as "Ming porcelain".The word "dynasty" is usually omitted when making such adjectival references.

The longest-reigning orthodox dynasty of China was the Zhou dynasty, ruling for a total length of 789 years, albeit it is divided into the Western Zhou and the Eastern Zhou in Chinese historiography, and its power was drastically reduced during the latter part of its rule.[10] The largest orthodox Chinese dynasty in terms of territorial size was either the Yuan dynasty or the Qing dynasty, depending on the historical source.[11][12][13][14][15][c]

Chinese dynasties often referred to themselves as "Tianchao" "Celestial Dynasty" or "Heavenly Dynasty"). As a form of respect and subordination, Chinese tributary states referred to Chinese dynasties as "Tiāncháo Shangguo" "Celestial Dynasty of the Lofty State") or "Tianchao Daguo" "Celestial Dynasty of the Great State")

What role does the pancreas play in digestion
victus00 [196]

Enzymes, or digestive juices, are secreted by the pancreas into the small intestine. There, it continues breaking down food that has left the stomach. The pancreas also produces the hormone insulin and secretes it into the bloodstream, where it regulates the body's glucose or sugar level.
