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.

Abrasion generally occurs four ways. Glaciation slowly grinds rocks picked up by ice against rock surfaces. Solid objects transported in river channels make abrasive surface contact with the bed and walls. Objects transported in waves breaking on coastlines cause abrasion. I HOPE THIS HELPED:)

Answer:

<u>the bottleneck effect</u>

<u />

Explanation:

Genetic drift has an important impact on the small populations. mutations, which are spontaneous heritable changes in the genetic code, made up of DNA. Here, mutations accumulate over time in a group, modifying the distribution of alleles or various forms of a gene. Natural selection may result in a loss of diversity in a population called genetic drift; one trait's allelic frequency rises while others become less prevalent. Typically such differences exist because of occurrences of mutation and recombination.

Some mutations or alleles may become extinct from the population.

<u />

Variants of a gene accumulate and are transmitted across generations; the frequencies of these occurrences are altered and become more stable in genetic drift- they become genetically distinct and may eventually form a new species after isolation. This may be further compounded through other  phenomena such as the founder effect where a group separates and genetic diversity decreases; and the bottleneck effect where barriers to reproduction or the die-off a population increases genetic drift.
