1. The genetic code is degenerate
2. In all amino acids the first two bases are the same in all the codons that represent a particular amino acid
3. The number of codons an amino acid can claim is proportional to the frequency of the amino acid in proteins
4. Amino acids with codons ending in U or A also have codons ending in C or G respectively
The common amino acids are also called as alpha-amino acids because they contain their amino group attached to the alpha carbon.
Directions : In each of the following questions a statement is given, followed by two conclusions. Give answer :

Statements : About 50 per cent of the animal by-products - hair, skin, horns etc. is edible protein. American chemists have developed a method of isolating 45 per cent of this protein. They used an enzyme developed in Japan to break down soya protein.

Conclusions :
I. Americans have not been able to develop enzymes.
II. Animal by-products protein has the same composition as soya protein.
The amino acids for protein synthesis is activated by the enzyme ______________
Phytase, an enzyme produced by Aspergillus niger can be adsorbed on microcrystalline cellulose powder (MCCP). The adsorption follows a Langmuir isotherm and the maximum concentration of the protein that can be obtained on the adsorbent is 70 mg cm-1. At a concentration of 50 mg L-1 of protein in the solution, the concentration of protein on the adsorbent reaches 35 mg cm-1. It is desired to recover 90% of the protein from 1.5 liter of the cell free culture filtrate containing 220 mg L-1 protein by addition of MCCP to the solution. The concentration of the protein adsorbed on the solid at equilibrium will be:
