Answer:

The correct answer is- Nirenberg and Heinrich, 1961.

Explanation:

Experiments by Marshall Nirenberg and Heinrich Matthaei in 1961, began to decipher genetic codes and state about the 64 triplet codons in the genetic code by using mRNA from DNA to translate into specific amino acids in our biological system.

Their experiment helps to decode or crack the code of DNA by establishing the first codon out of 64 triplet codes which are  UUU codes for phenylalanine. In the future, the same approach is used to find other amino acids.

How do scientists determine the thickness of the Earth's layers?
alina1380 [7]

Answer: the relative differences in arrival times of the S and P seismic waves at several recording stations tell scientists about the different speeds those waves were traveling at, which in turn gives information about the density of the material the layer is made of, and how thick the layer is in several directions.
