A DNA sequence that is 15 nucleotides long would normally give rise to a polypeptide sequence that would be 5 amino acids long. This is assuming that all the nucleotides in the DNA sequences are strictly coded to form only sense codons and not a single nonsense codon, also called termination codon

A sense codon is a set of three nucleotides also called a triplet, that codes for a particular amino acid. A DNA sequence of 15 nucleotides has 5 codons.

A nonsense or termination codon is one that does not code for any amino acid. There are three nonsense codons found on mRNA, and these are UAA, UAG and UGA.  So if the DNA sequence has one of these, then the amino acids  in the polypeptide chain will be 4 in number

Lab Report experiment about lima beans plant
kumpel [21]

Lima beans in soil of pH 6.8 grew better than that in soil of pH 7.9 showing that a slightly acidic soil is best for growth of Lima beans.

<h3>What is the purpose of the experiment?</h3>

The purpose of the experiment is to determine the effect of  soil pH of growth of Lima beans.

Lima beans is known to have maximum growth in soil pH of 6.0 to 6.8.

The Lima beans are planted in soil of pH 7.9 (watered with creek water) and soil of pH 6.8 (watered with a solution of Miracle grow).

It was observed after ten days, that the Lima beans in soil of pH 6.8 grew better than that in soil of pH 7.9 which did not grow.

In conclusion, Lima beans grows best in soil of pH that is slightly acidic.
