question 49

Multiple Choice

Use the following information to answer the question.
A part of an mRNA molecule with the following sequence is being read by a ribosome: 5?-CCG-ACG-3? (mRNA) . The following charged transfer RNA molecules (with their anticodons shown in the 3? to 5? direction) are available. Two of them can correctly match the mRNA so that a dipeptide can form.
