RNA processing e. mutagen f. SNRNA g. redundancy h. universal i. promoter j. elongation There are several three nucleotide codons that code for the same amino acid. This is known as (81). A specific three nucleotide codon for a fruit fly codes for the same amino acid as that same specific three nucleotide codon for a human. This means that the genetic code is (82). The three steps of transcription are initiation, (83), and termination. The (84) region on a chromosome is the sequence of nucleotides in DNA that indicates where the RNA polymerase complex should bind to initiate transcription. In a eukaryotic cell mRNA is modified in three ways. This is known as (85). The role of (86) is to combine with protein and then bind to introns to remove them and splice the RNA together. The role of (87) is to transport amino acids to the ribosome where the anticodon loop…arrow_forward
