Question

what is the making of a polypeptide with a specified order of amino acids? A) transcription B) translation C) replication

Answer 1

Answer;

B. Translation

Explanation;

• Translation is the process by which a protein or polypeptides are synthesized from the information contained in a molecule of messenger RNA .

• During translation, messenger RNA (mRNA) is decoded in a ribosome to produce a specific amino acid chain, or polypeptide. This occurs in three stages; Initiation, elongation and termination.
• A series of amino acids joined by peptide bonds form a polypeptide chain, and each amino acid unit in a polypeptide is called a residue.
