MRNa's are composed of codons. Codons are a sequence of three nucleotides that come together to be transcribed by an anti-codon to form units for genetic coding. For example, AUG is a codon and upon transcribing becomes the protein Methionine. In this case, they differ in the terminal codon. UAG is a stop codon while UAC is Tyrosine. The first sequence is complete,while the other one is not.

Answer:
A - G1 phase
B - G2 phase
C - S phase
D - Mitosis
E - Interphase
Explanation:
Interphase is all the parts of the cell cycle excluding mitosis, and encompasses G1, S, and G2 phases. Cells spend most of their lives in interphase
G1 is the first gap phase, where the cell is growing and making checks in preparation for mitosis. During S phase (the synthesis phase), the DNA is replicated. This is so a full copy of the DNA can be passed on to the daughter cells.
During the G2 phase, the final checks are made before the cell undergoes mitosis, which is where the cell divides.
Hello, Mohammed is experiencing the phase called REM or rapid eye movement phase of sleep. The REM phase is where we typically dream. Also associated with this are the activity of our eyes to which the phase was named after. Scientists believe that this eye movements happen because of our dreams.
The answer would be d.citric acid cycle
Population of older female elephants different from the younger female elephants is described below.
Explanation:
- THE OLDEST ELEPHANTS wandering Mozambique’s Gorongosa National Park bear the indelible markings of the civil war that gripped the country for 15 years: Many are tuskless. They’re the lone survivors of a conflict that killed about 90 percent of these beleaguered animals, slaughtered for ivory to finance weapons and for meat to feed the fighters.
-
Hunting gave elephants that didn’t grow tusks a biological advantage in Gorongosa. Recent figures suggest that about a third of younger females—the generation born after the war ended in 1992—never developed tusks. Normally, tusklessness would occur only in about 2 to 4 percent of female African elephants.
- New, as yet unpublished, research she’s compiled indicates that of the 200 known adult females, 51 percent of those that survived the war—animals 25 years or older—are tuskless. And 32 percent of the female elephants born since the war are tuskless.
- A male elephant’s tusks are bigger and heavier than those of a female of the same age, says Poole, who serves as scientific director of a nonprofit called ElephantVoices. “But once there’s been heavy poaching pressure on a population, then the poachers start to focus on the older females as well,” she explains. “Over time, with the older age population, you start to get this really higher proportion of tuskless females.”
- “The prevalence of tusklessness in Addo is truly remarkable and underscores the fact that high levels of poaching pressure can do more than just remove individuals from a population,” says Ryan Long, a behavioral ecologist at the University of Idaho and a National Geographic Explorer. The “consequences of such dramatic changes in elephant populations are only just beginning to be explored.”
