(see photo) if an error in transcription causes the last cytosine in an mrna sequence that was supposed to read uug auc caa ugc to be replaced with a guanine, which of the following do you predict would happen? a. nothing will happen since the last codon will still correspond to threonine. b. only three amino acids will be produced instead of four. c. the last amino acid in the chain will be tryptophan instead of cysteine. d. the first amino acid in the chain will be glycine instead of arginine.

C. The last amino acid in the chain will be tryptophan instead of cysteine!

9.9 years

a = p(1 + rt) . . account balance after time t at rate r starting with principal p

3000 = 2500(1 + 0.0202t) . . filling in the given numbers

1.2 = 1 + 0.0202t . . divide by 2500

0.2 = 0.0202t . . . subtract 1

0.2/0.0202 = t ≈ 9.901

it will take about 9.9 years for the account balance to reach $3000.
