An autotroph is an organism capable photosynthesis or chemosynthesis through reducing carbon dioxide, fats, sugars and/or proteins in a repetitive cycle of energy production and use to support its life. these include all plants, algae and certain bacterium.
its counterpart is the heterotroph which is reliant on outside sources for their means of energy. aka tertiary consumer: animals, fungi and certain bacterium
Answer:
Differences in temperature or precipitation determine the types of plants that grow in a given area (Figure 1). Generally speaking, height, density, and species diversity decreases from warm, wet climates to cool, dry climates. Raunkiaer (1934) classified plant life forms based on traits that varied with climate.
Explanation:
Answer:
ACA: Threonine
CAC: Histidine
Explanation:
To answer this question we need to remember that the ribosome reads every three bases or 'codon' in order to assign the right tRNA carrying the amino acid.
In the first artificial mRNA we see two patterns of three letter:
CAC and ACA.
In the second artificial mRNA we are able to identify three different patterns:
CAA
AAC
ACA
And they repeat, so we end with three different polypeptides: polythreonine, polyglutamine and polyasparagine. This will depend on the initial letter the ribosome starts reading.
The only amino acid that repeats in both artificial mRNAs is Threonine, and we see its pattern ACA also repeated.
So, we could assign this codon (ACA) to threonine.
We can then assume that the pattern CAC codifies for histidine since we only get this two polypeptides in the first mRNA.
Lastly with the information provided we cannot determine the codons AAC and CAA for glutamine or asparagine. We would need further experiments.
The correct answer is "All of the above are correct"
