The sequence "gug cau cga uaa" is a segment of which of the following?
a. a protein
b. a strand of rna
c. a strand of dna
d. an amino acid
e. can't be determined from the information provided

b. a strand of RNA.

Explanation: The sequence "GUG CAU CGA UAA" is a segment  of a strand of RNA and that can be determinated because the letters correspond to nucleotides and is written in triplets or codons. Besides, the sequence has uracils, a nucleotide only present in RNA that pairs with adenine.

if the hares very faster than they are now, and thus the lynx's hunting success rate drops because it will be harder to catch them, the rate that will change will be the pray-rate. the pray-rate will change because more hares will be able to survive, thus more individuals for reproduction, so the end result will be increasing population of hares.

the predator-rate will remain pretty much the same because there will be more than enough pray, but the hunting success rate is stagnant.

d. cellulose and starch
