Question

During translation, the code for genetic information changes from-

Answer 1

Answer:B. nucleic acids to amino acids

Explanation: During translation, proteins are synthesized from messenger RNA molecule. Messenger RNA (mRNA) is a type of ribonucleic acid that contains genetic codes which code for amino acids. A genetic code or codon is a triplet of nucleotide (three nucleotide molecules) that codes for a specific amino acid. During translation, the genetic code in an mRNA is read by the ribosome and the information is converted to an amino acid sequence by transfer RNA (tRNA) which gets the amino acid coded for by the codon and attaches it to the growing polypeptide chain.

Transfer RNA is responsible for fetching the correct amino acid coded for by the codon from the cytosol and attaching it to the growing polypeptide sequence.
