Which of the following statements describes how the
RNA sequence specifies the production of an amino
acid chain? (1 point)

A. Each individual RNA base codes for a single amino
acid.

B. Each group of three RNA bases codes for a single
amino acid.

C. Each group of three RNA bases codes for an
enzyme that helps join amino acids together.

D. Each individual RNA base codes for the ribosome
location where amino acids are assemembled



Answer :

B; the group of three that codes for an amino acid is called a codon.

The statement 'each group of three RNA bases codes for a single amino acid' describes how the RNA sequence specifies the production of an amino acid chain (Option B).

What is gene transcription?

Gene transcription is the process by which a fragment of DNA called gene is used to create a messenger RNA.

  • Subsequently, this mRNA molecule is then used to create a protein by the process of translation.

  • In mRNA, the triplets of nucleotides or codons indicate the specific amino acids that will be added to the poly[peptide.

In conclusion, the statement 'each group of three RNA bases codes for a single amino acid' describes how the RNA sequence specifies the production of an amino acid chain (Option B).
