- Which of the following statements is true regarding the genetic code? O One DNA base contributes to two codons O Prokaryotes use a simple one-base code, while eukaryotes use a three-base code O Codons are translated as overlapping triplets O Most amino acids are coded for by more than one codonarrow_forwardWhich of the following is responsible for creating the covalent bonds that link the amino acids of a protein in the order specified by the gene that encodes that protein? rRNA tRNA mRNA ribosomearrow_forwardDescribe the specificity between the amino acid carried by a tRNA and a codon in mRNA.arrow_forward
- The attachment of an amino acid to a tRNA is calledarrow_forwardof the following determines the amino acid sequence of the protein produced during the process of translation? ribosomes ribosomal RNA transfer RNA messenger RNA ATParrow_forwardWhat characteristic of the genetic code explains why a substitution mutation in a codon contained within a protein coding gene does not always result in a replacement of one amino acid for another?arrow_forward
- All of the following statements about translation are true except: Release factors recognize stop codons and prompt-cleavage of a peptide bond. Initiation factors are involved in ribosome assembly. In prokaryotes, initiator transfer RNA (tRNAf) is attached to formylmethionine. Each messenger RNA contains a start codon and a stop codon.arrow_forwardWhat is the correct sequence in translation? a tRNA attaches to start codon, ribosome attaches to mRNA in P site, new tRNA enters on A site, peptide chain moves to old tRNA in P site, old tRNA moves to E and new tRNA to P. b tRNA attaches to start codon, ribosome attaches to mRNA in P site, new tRNA enters on A site, peptide chain moves to new tRNA, old tRNA moves to E and new tRNA to P. c tRNA attaches to start codon, ribosome attaches to mRNA in A site, new tRNA enters on P site, peptide chain moves to new tRNA, old tRNA moves to E and new tRNA to A. d tRNA attaches continuously to mRNA without the need of a ribosome. Proteins are: a the direct translation of a single gene b in most cases, the results of post-translation control c first transcribed from DNA by an operon d transcription factors Which of the following statements is false? a In the lytic cycle, new phage are produced and released into the environment. b…arrow_forwardEnzymes in which the catalytic portion is not made of protein include all of the following except: the large ribosomal subunit self-splicing introns peptidyl transferase infectious viroids tRNA synthetasearrow_forward
