28. For three of the 64 codons, there exists no tRNA with a

_____________ and serve as “stop” signals in the mRNA message?
29. Which statement does not describe the natural selection
example discussed in class (the one about the black and brown
mice)?
a. The tawny mice have a lower probability of being eaten, so
they pass on their genes compared to the black mice which blend
into the background
b. The tawny mice have a higher probability of being eaten, so
they do not pass on their genes compared to the black mice which
blend into the background
c. The black mice have a lower probability of being eaten, so
they pass on their genes compared to the tawny mice which do not
blend into the background
d. The black mice have a higher probability of replicating, so
they pass on their genes compared to the tawny mice which do not
blend into the background
e.None of the above
