Answer:

Methionine, arginine, serine, glycine

Explanation:

Use a codon chart (attached below) to determine what amino acids are coded for by the strand of mRNA. Remember that codons are groups of three nucleotides in mRNA. So, read the nucleotides in groups of three (just as how they are separated by spaces) and from left to right.

To use this codon chart, identify the first letter representing the first nucleotide in the codon. Then, find the matching letter that's one of the four biggest letters in the middle of the chart. Identify the second letter, then find the matching medium letter in the chart, staying within the section of the first letter as indicated by the lines, and do the same process with the third. Repeat for each codon.

Thus, with this mRNA strand, the amino acids will be methionine, arginine, serine, glycine.

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

C. These antibiotics interfere with protein synthesis within eukaryotic mitochondria.

Explanation:

Eukaryotic mitochondria have 70s ribosomes and is made up of 50s and 30s subunits which has similarities to the ribosomes of bacterial cells. This likeness

at times causes antibiotics that ought to be toxic to bacterial ribosomes to cause some toxicity in eukaryotic cells instead.
