The genetic code of an oak tree is not more similar to a mosquito than to an elm tree. The genetic code refers to the set of rules whereby living cells translate information on development, functioning, growth and reproduction in deoxyribonucleic cid (DNA) and on controlling synthesis in ribonucleic acid (RNA) into proteins. An oak tree, as a woody plant, will have a genetic code that is more similar to an ash, elm or maple tree, as woody plants, than to a chipmunk, mosquito, octopus or squirrel, as animals.

What is the genetic code for an oak tree?

The genetic code for an oak tree is more similar to other trees then to an animal.


Can more than one codon code for the same amino acid in the genetic code?

Yes, multiple codons can code for the same amino acid in the genetic code.


Why are there more codons than amino acids in the genetic code?

There are more codons than amino acids in the genetic code because multiple codons can code for the same amino acid. This redundancy helps protect against errors in the genetic code and allows for greater flexibility in protein synthesis.


How much body material is need to get a genetic code?

A sinlge drop of blood or a strand of your hair is more tha enough to get your genetic code.


Are the genetic makeup the same for first cousins and siblings?

No. Except for identical twins, the genetic makeup of each person is different. However, the more closely related you are to someone, the more similar your genetic makeup. So the genetics of siblings is more similar than of first cousins.


If all the genetic information anatomical similarities and fossil record support the same pattern of relationships is the pattern accurate?

Yes. If genetic information is similar, then the organisms had a common ancestor. The more similar the genes, the more recent the ancestor, as in, the more closely related the organisms are. If anatomical patterns are similar to genetic similaritiesm, then chances are the patterns are fairly accurate.


Which five amino acids have more than one codon for their genetic code?

The five amino acids that have more than one codon for their genetic code are leucine, serine, arginine, proline, and glycine.


What does it mean when we say the genetic code is redundant and how does this redundancy contribute to the versatility and robustness of genetic information?

The genetic code is redundant, meaning that multiple codons can code for the same amino acid. This redundancy allows for flexibility in the genetic code, making it more versatile and robust. If a mutation occurs in the DNA, there is a higher chance that the resulting protein will still be functional due to the redundancy in the genetic code. This redundancy helps to ensure that genetic information can be accurately translated into proteins, even in the presence of errors or mutations.

What evidence support the concept of the universal genetic code?

AnswerThe universality of the genetic code means that all living organisms are descended from one original organism, which is at least useful information. From a religious point of view, it could also be said that the creator god designed a successful genetic code and chose to use it universally. So, the genetic code does not actually prove or disprove evolution versus religion. But it proves the Theory of Evolution to be the best scientific explanation ofr life on earth.


The genetic code is degenerate?

Each amino acid can be specified by more than one codon.


The genetic code is nearly universal in that?

The genetic code is said to be universal because a codon represents the same amino acids in almost all organisms. There are more than one codon for the same amino acid.
