Which of the triplets below is a possible anticodon for a tRNA that transports proline to a ribosome?

• UUC

• CCG

• GGC

• CCC

Which of the following processes occurs during transcription?

• DNA is replicated

• RNA is synthesized

• proteins are synthesized

• mRNA attaches to ribosomes

Which of the following processes occurs during translation?

• DNA is replicated

• RNA is synthesized

• proteins are synthesized

• caps and tails are added to mRNA

The genetic code is redundant. What is meant by this statement?

• A single codon can specify the addition of more than one amino acid.

• The genetic code is different for different domains of organisms.

• The genetic code is universal (the same for all organisms).

• More than one codon can specify the addition of the same amino acid.

What is the role of tRNA during protein synthesis?

• It replicates DNA.

• It synthesizes mRNA.

• It carries amino acids to the ribosome.

• It adds caps and tails to mRNA.

How does a codon relate to an amino acid in the context of genetic information?

• A codon is a three-nucleotide sequence on DNA that codes for an amino acid.

• A codon is a three-nucleotide sequence on mRNA that codes for an amino acid.

• A codon is a type of amino acid that codes for nucleotides.

• A codon is a part of tRNA that attaches to the amino acid.
