See answer below

Explanation:

Hi there,

Assuming this DNA strand is fully capable of being mature mRNA (5' m7G cap and PolyA tail), nucleotides lead to an mRNA codon, which is 3 nucleotides per codon. In turn, 1 codon leads to 1 amino acid. However, as a single strand, it must be capable of terminating translation, which always requires a stop codon, and thus 3 nucleotides. Hence, we must subtract this from the total amount of codons first.

Hence, only 11 amino acids will be coded by a single DNA strand 36 ncltd long.

thanks,

SashulF [63]

Answer:

Patches of fibrocartilage formed in the healing of a fracture are called soft callus, whereas the bony collar formed around the fracture is called hard callus.

Explanation:

In the fibrocartilage or soft bone callus phase, the necrotic bone is removed by osteoclastia and dead soft tissues are being removed by macrophages. The fibroblasts are activated and a granulation tissue is generated that supposes the appearance of new vessels and, with them, the arrival of more connective tissue cells. A tissue called fibrous callus or fibrocartilage begins to form, composed of a poorly structured amalgam of fibrous tissue, cartilage, and amorphous bone.In hard callus, bone and later cartilage are deposited in the growing historical mass. The two collars of callus, fixed to the bone at some distance from the fracture, they grow upwards and towards each other, forming an arc on focus.
