150 cordons in amino acid
34kurt2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

150 codons

Explanation:

Explanation:

Each codon codes for a one amino acid.

Each codon requires three nucleic bases.

This is on a single strand of DNA or RNA.

Since DNA is a double helix it would require 900 nucleic bases on the DNA but only 450 nucleic bases for the RNA as the RNA is a single strand copy of the DNA.

A single mistake in the 150 codons or 900 DNA bases can result in a defective protein. For example cycle cell anemia is caused by the trading of an A for T on one codon.

150 codons might not seem like much but the amount of information stored in 150 codons is huge. ( 150 codons is actually small for a protein.)

Which among the following mineral groups, if any, contain silicon: halides
viktelen [127]

Answer:

The correct answer is: none of these mineral groups contain silicon.

Explanation:

The only minerals that contain silicon are the Silicates, for example, SiO2 (silica).

Halides are minerals that consist of a combination of elements from the seventh group that can form salts (like fluorine or chlorine), with other elements such as calcium and sodium. For example: NaCl (sodium chloride).

Carbonates are compounds that contain carbon and oxygen, for example, CaMg(CO3)2 (dolomite).

Sulfides consist of sulfur with another element. For example: ZnS (zinc sulfide).

aa. Aa. AA. Zebra mussels have the following genotypes and phenotypes. Which cross would produce the greatest number of heterozy
lyudmila [28]

Answer: A (AA x aa)

Explanation:

In option (A) both of the parent mussels are homozygotes, for alleles "a" and "A" respectively. Therefore, every single one (100%) of their offspring would be expected to be Aa heterozygotes. Combinations (B) and (D) yield a lower proportion of heterozygotes (50%), and combination (C) yields none at all. Punnett squares follow:

(A)

<u>   |  A      A        </u>

<u>a |  aA    aA      </u>

<u>a |  aA    aA      </u>

<u />

(B)

<u>   |  A      a       </u>

<u>A |  AA   Aa     </u>

<u>a |  aA    aa      </u>

<u />

(C)

<u>   |   A      A        </u>

<u>A |  AA    AA     </u>

<u>A |  AA    AA     </u>

<u />

(D)

<u>   |  A      a        </u>

<u>a |  aA    aa       </u>

<u>a |  aA    aa      </u>

<u />
