Here is your other post: Of course v or k doesn't make a difference. There is an actual difference between (2) above and the second formula in the OP: Do you see it? Plus, I don't see anything there about the equivalence you're talking about here.

I just did. The equation (2) there is very similar although not identical to your formula 2 here. And, nothing there says that the two formulas in the OP are equivalent, does it?

My favorite woman in science is Rosalia Arshakovna, my math teacher in school, many eons ago. I don't even know her last name

I don't know about this, but they are different for r=n=2. What is the source of the statement above?

They are not equivalent.

Yes, you did say splicing. It is my fault that I've missed it. I'm sorry. In my misunderstanding, I thought that X,Y,Z in your strings stand for arbitrary nucleotide bases. Now, after you've mentioned "hypothetical protein", I think they stand for arbitrary amino acids. Is this correct? Are we talking about mRNA splicing that occur after transcription and before translation? When introns get excised and exons get connected? I don't know about any redundancy associated with this splicing. I do know that alternative splicing is used to make different polypeptides from the same DNA sequence. This is somewhat opposite to redundancy.

They are not the same. There is no cyclic symmetry. Your example looks like a frameshift mutation, which would lead to a very different peptide chain. Frameshift mutation - Wikipedia

Looks good!

In fact, there is a lot of redundancy, i.e. the same amino acid being coded by several mRNA codons. There are 64 codons coding for only 20 amino acids: There seems to be quite a few modified bases occurring naturally, defined chemically. Here is a recent review: Natural, modified DNA bases - ScienceDirect

I don't see how fermentation could be "the oldest", because it uses organic compounds, which had to be produced from an inorganic matter first. Chemolithotrophs could've done that, for example.

Generally, yes. I don't think it is so for all people, all blanks.

Yes, maybe. Anyway, I hope that if they err, then only by undercounting.

I suspect that the corals were spawning and the fish were feasting on the eggs which were slowly floating upward.

Sometimes it seems to be a self-inflicted impairment. Just yesterday I had a phone call from a Russian acquaintance living long time in the US. Evidently, she didn't see the program that gave the nuclear bomb reasoning for shelling Kharkov, and started telling me about the Ukrainian ultra-nationalists shelling their own people to create the anti-Russian public opinion. On my questions, she said that Russian TV is the only truthful source of information about what is going on there, and all the rest is just fake news. (I've told her to never call me again and hang up.)

Right, no more doubts and confusion, everything is crystal clear now. Жить стало лучше, жить стало веселей.

It's not only us, humans. E.g. my dog barks when he sees something strange esp. if it's moving, until he figures out that it's not animate. Or, if animate, not a threat.

2 boats is perhaps correct - this is easy to count. The other numbers are more unreliable. Regardless, the reality is not what Putin expected. Or, anyone else.

Thank you.

The apology accepted. I did not mean to ask what I did not ask.

This underwater garden is created by fire corals. Beautiful to look at, but quite painful to touch. Actually, these colonies are not true corals, but other cnidarians. Here is another:

Where are these numbers from?

I'd like to learn what and how this research adds to our understanding of eukaryote evolution.

Metals are not chemicals and insects are not animals.

They don't synthesize organic matter. They consume it.
