150 cordons in amino acid

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.)

How does sucrose move from source to sieve?
dybincka [34]

The sucrose move in source to sieve by active transport.

<h3>What is active transport?</h3>

Active transport is a type of transport in which the cell expends energy to move solutes against their concentration gradients. The sodium-potassium pump is an example of active transport. Active transport differs from passive transport in that the cell does not expend energy.

In this case, the sucrose moves from companion cells into source to sieve elements by active transport. This reduces the water potential of the source to sieve element  by osmosis, which increases the hydrostatic pressure.
