Directs creation of amino acids to make proteins
Y important for start stop coda
Main purpose is to tell the cell how to make proteins and the cell needs to know when to start and stop to get the right message and make the right protein which makes a healthy cell and a healthy organism
What materiel makes hormones enzymes and antibodies
Proteins
Y more colorblind male
Takes 1 chrome for guy
2 for girl
Y important study large numbers of organisms
The larger the number the more accurate your research will be cuz u have more of everything so u know the specifics and more can relate because even if they are the same species they may have diff things about them and so your research will be more widespread and accurate
