Question

Which genetic code might be found in a strand of rna

1)AAGGGT
2)ACATGA
3)CCAUGG
4)GTCUAC

Answer 1

Answer: The correct answer is- 3)CCAUGG.

The genetic code can be described as set of instructions that are present in RNA or DNA in the form of nucleotide sequences (having codons, a sequence of three nucleotide depicting particular amino acid).

The nucleotides that are present in RNA are- Adenine (A), Uracil( U), Cytosine( C), and Guanine (G).

Thymine, T (which is present in DNA) is absent in RNA. Instead of Thymine, Uracil (U) is present in RNA.

Thus, option 3) is the right answer.
