AnswerThe universality of the genetic code means that all living organisms are descended from one original organism, which is at least useful information. From a religious point of view, it could also be said that the creator god designed a successful genetic code and chose to use it universally. So, the genetic code does not actually prove or disprove evolution versus religion. But it proves the Theory of Evolution to be the best scientific explanation ofr life on earth.

One piece of the evolutionary puzzle was common ancestry. Before the elucidation of the structure of DNA and the breaking of the genetic code it was only possible to claim common ancestry among living things mathematically and morphologically. Now molecular genetics can show physically that all organisms are related through common ancestry as was predicted by evolutionary theory.

When the first man landed on the moon he said to himself "what evidence supports the concept of the universal genetic code?"

Then he got some hand lotion and whacked his meat until it suffocated.

Geneticists have studied the genomes of many different species and their studies have shown that the genetic code is very similar in all species, with minor differences. The more closely related different species are, the more similar their genetic codes.

What evidence if any is there to support the theory that Noah's Ark was a DNA bank?

There is no evidence, so it is not a theory. It doesn't even make any sense. It's just trying to make up an excuse for the bible by sounding sciencey


Why do you need files in c program?

Files are needed to store a program's source code. The compiler uses these files to create object files which can then be linked by the linker to produce an executable code file. However, not all systems support the concept of a file, thus files are not actually considered part of the C standard and therefore files are not needed. They are simply a convenience when programming upon systems that do support the concept of a file.


What factors influence the development of database concept?

Before the intruduction of this database concept many people used Manual Processing and File based systems.But there are some limitations. Manual Processing-Time consuming Does not support large volumes of data File Based System-Data Inconsistency Duplication of data Security problems And to overcome the limitations of these processing this Database processing was intruduced


How do the chemical composition and the genetic information of humans resembles those of other organisms?

Almost all organisms share the same support for genetic information: DNA. We use the same 4-bases system as any other organisms to encode proteins, ribozymes, etc. We also share nearly all of our genome with chimps, and many of our genes are found in very different organisms. An example of this would be the information encoding the ribosomal RNA or proteins. Eukaryotic cells all have nearly the same ribosomes; moreover, these "evolved" ribosomes are only an expansion of those found in prokaryotic cells.That means we depend on the exact same chemical compound DNA, and we share a tremendous amount of genetic material with other species.


How you describe operations of stack ADT using c template functions?

No, because C does not support the concept of template functions. Template functions only exist in C++, never in C.
