What might be an advantage of having more than one codon for the same amino acid?

The extra codons mean the code is more resilient- small errors can still result in the same protein being produced. The other advantage is that in some cases, a single strand of genetic material might code for more than one protein or enzyme, depending on how it is read. This means that one method of reading will produce the same output, but the second or third method of reading (starting from a different place on the strand) can produce other, entirely different materials. This concept is like a palimpsest.

lesantik [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is A) Histone deacetylation generally decreases gene expression.

Explanation:

Histones are the proteins that are responsible for the condensation of chromatin, which is directly linked to the capacity that a gene has to be expressed. The more condensed a gene is, the less expressible it becomes.

In order to regulate the gene expression, histones can suffer from many modifications that can change their conformation and the expressiveness of specific genes.

<u>Histone acetylation is linked with an increase of gene expression; while deacetylation and methylation decrease gene expression.</u>
