The average life expectancy has increased dramatically in Nigeria. A male child born in 1900 could expect to live for only 46 years, whereas one born today can expect to live more than 72 years. A ...
The genetic code is the recipe for life, and provides the instructions for how to make proteins, generally using just 20 amino acids. But certain groups of microbes have an expanded genetic code, in ...
