During translation, nucleotide base triplets (codons) in mRNA are read in sequence in the 5’ → 3’ direction along the mRNA. Amin

o acids are specified by the string of codons. What amino acid sequence does the following mRNA nucleotide sequence specify?

Answer:

The question is incomplete, it lacks the mRNA sequence. The sequence is as follows:

5′−AUGGCAAGAAAA−3′

The answer is Met-Ala-Arg-Lys

Explanation:

Gene expression in living organisms involves the process of transcription and translation. Transcription is the synthesis of a complementary strand of mRNA from a DNA template while translation involves using the transcibed mRNA as a template to synthesize amino acid sequence (proteins).

In the RIBOSOME, where the synthesis of protein occurs, the mRNA nuceleotide sequence is read in a group of three nucleotides called CODON. Each codon specifies a particular amino acid. The collection of all codons is the genetic code. Hence, for a specific mRNA sequence that reads 5′−AUGGCAAGAAAA−3′. The nucleotides will be read three at a time starting with AUG which is a codon that encodes METHIONINE.

Next, GCA is a codon that encodes ALANINE

Next, AGA is a codon that encodes ARGININE

Finally, AAA is a codon that encodes LYSINE.

Hence, the amino acid sequence using the above mRNA sequence, will read: Met-Ala-Arg-Lys

We have learned Kepler's Laws, Newtons laws of Motion and Gravity, as well as where planets are in relationship to the sun. Know
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

''Planets moves around the sun with constantly changing speed.''

''The sun uses its gravity to pull the planets towards it''

Explanation:

These two statements describes Newtons laws of Motion and Gravity. With statement 1, which shows the motion of the planets constantly changing due to the attraction of the sun. When the planets come close together to the sun, its orbital speed increases while on the other hand, when the planets goes farther from the sun, its orbital speed decreases. The statement 2 indicates that sun attracts other planets due to its gravity which allow them to move in a curved.
