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.)

Why is it incorrect to say the insulation 'keeps out the cold'
Sonja [21]
Because technically there is no such thing as cold
all that exists is heat
this is because heat is the rapid movement of particles, made by friction (to understand why you must delve into physics and some chemistry)
so, when you feel cold, it's really the absence of heat
so instead of "keeping the cold out", which makes no sense at all scientifically, insulation keeps the heat in.

as a side note
the feeling of cold is produced when you come in contact with an object (yes, air counts) that has less heat, or energy, than you do, You feel cold because heat (energy) from your body is being transferred to the environment. This ABSENCE OF HEAT in your body is why you feel cold

During pyruvate processing, two carbons from pyruvate combine with ____.
Oduvanchick [21]

<span>The correct answer is b: Coenzyme A.</span>

During the process of pyruvate oxidation, acetyl CoA molecule is produced. Pyruvate oxidation is the link between glycolysis and Krebs cycle and it converts pyruvate (three-carbon molecule) into acetyl-CoA ( two-carbon molecule attached to Coenzyme A). NADH is produced and one CO2 released. AcetylCoA is the substrate for the next stage of cellular respiration, citric acid cycle.
