In DNA and RNA, what “codes for amino acids”?

Biology
1 answer:
Stels [109]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

DNA: Three nucleotides encode an amino acid. Proteins are built from a basic set of 20 amino acids, but there are only four bases. Simple calculations show that a minimum of three bases is required to encode at least 20 amino acids.

RNA: You can think of the sequences of bases in the coding strand of DNA or in messenger RNA as coded instructions for building protein chains out of amino acids. There are 20 amino acids used in making proteins, but only four different bases to be used to code for them. Obviously one base can't code for one amino acid.

C) "My blood pressure should be less than 130/80 mm Hg."

D) "Daily estrogen will prevent another heart attack."

The CORRECT ANSWER IS D)

D) "Daily estrogen will prevent another heart attack."

Explanation:

A reduction in the natural hormone estrogen levels could be a causative factor in heart disease increase within post-menopausal women. Estrogen is thought to show a positive impact on the inner layer of artery wall, functioning in such a way to keep blood vessels elastic.

In spite of the advantages of estrogen, the American Heart Association speaks against employing postmenopausal hormone therapy to decrease the likelihood of coronary heart disease or stroke as some research works have revealed that it vividly do not decrase the risk of heart attack but increases the likelihood of blood clots and stroke.
