Answer:

When the level of release of carbon dioxide during respiration and use of carbon dioxide during photosynthesis this results in a compensation point. At compensation point the net available carbon dioxide to phototrophs becomes zero. As, carbon dioxide is the chief ingredient for photosynthetic products like glucose and oxygen. These products are used up during the process of respiration. When the rates of two processes photosynthesis and respiration becomes equal. Phototrophic organisms will not be able to compensate for lack of carbon dioxide levels. Phototrophs will not be able to produce their food in the form of glucose and hence will not be able to respire too. This will result in lack of overall available food from phototrophs and lack of available oxygen for respiration. This will result in decline of organisms on earth.

Cell theory is referred to as the history of scientific theory. All cells come from pre-existing cells, and that is the basic unit reproduction and a basic unit of all organisms. The three tenets of cell theory are,
1. cells arise from pre-existing cells.
2. The cell an organizational basic unit and structure in organisms.
3. All living organisms are composed of more or one cells. Cell theory did not become a law because the scientist who discovered it, did not give it a credit to become a law but a theory.
Since it did not have enough support to become a law.

Answer:

According to the genetic code, the amino acids are the following:

- Glycine: encoded by GGC, GGA and GGG codons

-Arginine: encoded by AGA and AGG codons

-Lysine: encoded by AAA and AAG codons

-Glutamic acid: encoded by GAA and GAG codons

Explanation:

The probabilities to observe an amino-acid formed by Glutamic acid in the coding sequence is 2/9 for each codon
