irinina [24]

Answer:

Most restriction enzymes recognize sequences of 20-25 bp in length

Explanation:

Sequences of DNA that are recognized by restriction enzymes are called recognition (or restriction) sites are usually are between 4 and 8 bases long. Many of them are palindromic, which means that they are the same when you read it backwards and forwards (mirror-like).

Restriction enzymes are endonucleases, which means they cut phosphodiiester bonds within DNA. These enzymes are from prokaryotic organisms (archea and bacteria) which use them as defending mechanism against viruses. Prokaryotes protect their own DNA via methylation, performed by methyltransferase.

That is a codon chart on the right.
You want to put the amino acid sequence correctly. I can’t find it but I know that the t=a. You would change all the t’s to a. Then start from the middle and work your way out following the three letters in the sequence.

Darwin realized that the often exquisite fit of species to their environment is primarily the result of
bagirrra123 [75]
Natural Selection.
An easy and important way to remember this is by thinking of a species - let’s say a bright white moth. For ages, these moths have survived beautifully, matching perfectly with the white tree bark they live on, until one day, a smoky building begins pumping its soot into the air. This air begins to change the color of the tree bark to black and the once hidden white moths are now plainly visible to birds who eat them easily. Fortunately, every now and then a moth is born who is darker than the rest - black as soot even. And so, the birds keep eating the white moths but missing the soot-colored ones. As time goes by, the soot-colored moths produce more and more similarly colored moths, who are well hidden from the birds AND after enough time, the only moths that remain are soot-colored. This is why so many species “fit” exquisitely into their environment. They have ALL adapted in some way similar to the soot-colored moth.

Is the only thing that is not living
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

The main difference between living and non-living things is that a living organism is or was once alive, whereas a non-living thing has never been alive. Non-living is not the same as being dead because non-living things were never alive and therefore cannot die.
