A Short Segment of an MRNA Molecule Is Shown Below

question 11

Multiple Choice

A short segment of an mRNA molecule is shown below.The polypeptide it codes for is also shown: 5'-AUGGUGCUGAAG : methionine-valine-leucine-lysine
Assume that a mutation in the DNA occurs so that the fourth base (counting from the 5' end) of the messenger RNA now reads A rather than G.What sequence of amino acids will the mRNA now code for? (You do not need a copy of the genetic code to answer the question.)


Definitions:

Electrical Response

The reaction or output of an electrical system or component when a voltage or current is applied.

Forward Bias

Forward bias is the condition in which a p-n junction semiconductor, such as a diode, allows current to flow freely from the p-side (anode) to the n-side (cathode) by applying a voltage.

Current Flow

Describes the directional movement of electric charge carriers, like electrons, in a circuit, crucial for powering and operating electronic devices.

Power Transistor

A semiconductor device used to amplify or switch electronic signals and electrical power.
