Answer:
False. There are 20 amino acids, but 64 possible codons.
Explanation:
Genetic information for the aminoacids assembly during the protein synthesis is stored in short sequences of three nucleotides named codons in the mRNA. Each of the codons represents one of the 20 amino acids used to build the protein. The total number of possible codons is 64, from which 61 codify amino acids -more than one codon codify for the same amino acid-. One of these amino acids is also the start point of protein synthesis. And the left three codons are stopping translation points.
The codons indicating the initiation or stop points during the translation process are:
• The start codon AUG is the most common sequence used by eukaryotic cells and places near the 5´extreme of the molecule. However, other codons might be used as well. Prokaryote cells might use the codons GUG or UUG.
• The end codons are UAA, UAG, UGA.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Green Plants are the main producers of starch as carbohydrate.In order to carry out this special organelle Chloroplast are specially adapted for this purpose,
Green plant are made up of Chlorophyll which are the green pigments that for trapping sunlight for the synthesis of starch to occur.
Photosynthesis is the process of synthesis of the starch.It involves the reaction of C02 with water in the presence of sunlight and enzymes to give oxygen as the byproduct, and Starch( carbohydrate) as the main product.
This process occur in two pathways the light dependent pathways and the light independent pathways,
Green plant and some organisms phytoplankons,algea are capable of producing starch through photosynthesis because of the green pigment they possess.Therefore they are said to be Autothrophic.
Answer:
The correct answer is option a. "scales".
Explanation:
The missing information of this question is the following:
"Terry catches a ray-finned fish from the ocean and notices that attached to its flank is an equally long, snakelike organism. The attached organism has no external segmentation, no scales, a round mouth surrounded by a s*cker, and two small eyes. Terry concludes it is a hagfish."
Gymnophiona is a group of amphibians characterized by having dermal scales as integumentary element. These amphibians are tetrapods and their scales are comprised of several layers of unmineralized collagenous fibers. The skeleton of the hagfish is made entirely of cartilage, therefore it is very likely that the tooth-like objects of hagfish's are made of cartilage, just like the scales of the tetrapod.
Oxygen molecules diffuse fast because the main gas in a cell in Carbon Dioxide its like if it was 99.9 percent carbon that .1 percent is oxygen and carbon dioxide being what it is. Automatically overrides the amount of oxygen. Basically it is nonpolar
Answer:
Option A: True
Explanation:
Insectivorous birds such as bluebirds, dippers and flycatchers prefer to eat medium-sized insects. This is because like most birds, they love easy and satisfying meals. To the birds, a medium-sized insect is a good compromise because it is quite easy to chew and digest and at the same time, easy to find.
As a result, most insectivorous birds prefer to get their daily ration of proteins from the medium-sized birds.
