Answer:
As a cell grows bigger, its internal volume enlarges and the cell membrane expands. Unfortunately, the volume increases more rapidly than does the surface area, and so the relative amount of surface area available to pass materials to a unit volume of the cell steadily decreases.
The answer Is the letter D
Answer:
a) 28 cases
b) 3 cases
Explanation:
a) From the table of genetic codes, there are 28 codons that specify more than one amino acid assuming only the first two nucleotides are considered. In these cases, one cannot outrightly specify the amino acid the genetic codes are coding for without knowing the last nucleotide of the codes. <em>For example, UU can be for Phenylalanine or Leucine, CA can be for Histidine or Glutamine, etc. </em>
b) From the table of genetic codes, the first two nucleotides of Arginine can be either of CG or AG, that of Serine can be either of UC or AG while that Leucine can be either of CU or UU. Only in these <u>3 cases</u> would one fail to know which are the first two nucleotides assuming the name of the amino acids are given.

Answer:
D
Explanation:
Mutation can be harmful and it can have no effect.
Answer: phosphates absorbed by plant roots
Explanation:
The inorganic phosphate ions are available in the rocks which are distributed into the soil by the withering process. The aquatic plants absorb the phosphate ions through their roots. The plants are consumed by the animals. The inorganic phosphate is converted by the plants and animals into organic form incorporated in the DNA.
