Each stop codon also codes for an amino acid Each codon in mRNA codes for exactly one amino acid The start codon also codes for an amino acid Each TRNA will base pair with only one codon There are multiple codons possible for nearly all amino acids Each TRNA carries exactly one type of amino acid Each anticodon in tRNA pairs with exactly one codon Each codon in TRNA codes for exactly one amino acidarrow_forwardWhich of the following is true about the genetic code? The first position of the tRNA anticodon is always inosine. Several codons may code for the same amino acid It is absolutely identical in all living things. All codons recognized by a given tRNA encode different amino acids. O The 2nd base of the anticodon sometimes permits "wobble" base pairing with 2 or 3 different codons.arrow_forwardHere is our DNA sequence: T-A-C-A-T-G-T-T-T-A-G-G-T-C-C-A-C-C-C-G-T-G-G-G-A-C-T Write the RNA sequence below as codons (separated by hyphens). What is your amino acid sequence? The codon table with amino acid sequence is section 6.7 of your textbook. (Separate the amino acids by hyphens.) Again, be sure to note the start and stop codons. What is the name of the process of creating an amino acid sequence from RNA? What would happen if, in the middle of your gene sequence, the DNA was transcribed into the letters UAA on the mRNA strand? What effect might this have on the gene/trait?

- Which of the following statements regarding the genetic code is false? The genetic code is nearly universal. Each codon codes for only one amino acid. Three different codons function to terminate translation. There is a single initiation codon. Each amino acid is encoded by a single codon.arrow_forwardWhat term is used to describe the sequence on the tRNA that is complementary to mRNA? Complementary sequence Codon Anti-codon Anti-anticodonarrow_forwardWhich of the following statements best explains why there are many more codons than there are amino acids? Group of answer choices Many codons are now considered "junk" codons The rules for base pairing between the third base of a codon and tRNA are flexible. Some tRNAs have anticodons that recognize four or more different codons. The DNA codes for all 61 tRNAs, but some are then destroyed.arrow_forward
