Question

9. Which of the following accurately describes the process of translation?

A. Each codon calls for a specific nucleotide.
B. The process continues until a ribosome reaches AUG.
C. Each tRNA molecule has a codon that matches an mRNA anticodon.
D. The process continues until a ribosome reaches UAA, UAG, or UGA.

Answer 1

The process of translation involves each codon calls for a specific nucleotide. The answer is letter A. during translation, an mRNA sequence is read using the genetic code to be translated into the 20-letter code of amino acids.
