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.)

Sort the items based on whether they have gravitational potential energy or chemical potential energy. liquid petroleum gasoline
poizon [28]

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is the energy of body due to its position in the gravitational field.

Whereas chemical potential energy is the energy within the chemical bonds of a substance.

For example, when we eat an apple then we get energy in our body so, it is the chemical potential energy stored in the apple.

Items sorted on the bases of gravitational potential energy and chemical potential energy are as follows.

Gravitational potential energy:

  • a ball thrown up in the air.
  • a stone rolling downhill.
  • water stored in an overhead tank.

Chemical potential energy:

  • liquid petroleum gasoline used in cars.
  • apples that people eat.
  • firecrackers that people set off.
