The main function of tRNA is to...

• carry a message that, when translated, forms proteins
• form a portion of ribosomes
• string together complementary RNA and DNA strands
• bring amino acids from the cytoplasm to the ribosomes

Choose the nucleotide sequence of the RNA strand that would be complementary to the following strand: 
GTAGTCA

• UATUAGA
• ACGACTG
• CAUCAGU
• CATCAGT

What amino acid is represented by the codon UUA?

• Phenylalanine
• Tyrosine
• Leucine
• Stop codon

NGSS.HS-LS3-1

What is the location in the cell for translation?

• nucleus
• mitochondria
• ribosome
• chloroplast

What is the three base sequence of mRNA that codes for a single amino acid?

• Anticodon
• Codon
• Protein

Translation is the process where

• mRNA is created in the Nucleus

• mRNA is decoded to form a protein at the ribosome

• glucose molecules are made

• is where lipids are synthesised

Does the order of amino acids in a protein matter?

• YES!
• NO!
