mRNA is read 3 letters at a time. This 3 letter code is called a...

• DNA

• Codon

• Rodon

An RNA molecule is

• double helix
• always double stranded
• usually double stranded
• single stranded

In mRNA, each codon specifies a particular 

• nucleotide
• amino acid
• purine
• pyrimidine

How many bases are in one codon?

• 1
• 2
• 3
• 4

Using the codon identify the amino acid sequence:
AUG-CCA-GUA-GGG-UAA

• MET-HIS-ALA-GLY-STOP
• MET-PRO-GLY-VAL-STOP
• MET-PRO-VAL-GLY-STOP
• MET-THR-SER-ASP-STOP

What is the correct sequence?

• RNA --> DNA --> Protein
• Protein --> RNA --> DNA
• DNA --> RNA --> Protein
• DNA --> Protein --> RNA
