Answer:

D. asparagine–glycine–tyrosine

Step-by-step explanation:

The given nucleotide sequence is: AAU-GGC-UAC

The codon AAU code for Asparagine. The codon GGC codes for amino acid glycine. The amino acid tyrosine is encoded by genetic code UAC.

So, the given nucleotide sequence "AAU-GGC-UAC" will code for proteins with amino acid sequence "Asparagine-glycine-tyrosine".
