Answer:

1. A codon is a triplet of nucleotides that codes for an amino acid. This amino acid is transported by the tRNA which possesses a complementary anticodon and it gets added to the nascent protein.

2. Amino acids are organic compounds that contain amino (–NH2) and carboxyl (–COOH) functional groups, along with a side chain (R group) specific to each amino acid.

3. the onset of protein production is signaled by the AUG codon which encodes methionine. the stop to the synthesis is given instead by the stop codons (UAA, UAG, UGA)

4. Met-Val-Thr-Ser-Arg-Leu-Stop
