Question

match the letters with the main components involved in protein synthesis. growing polypeptide chain of amino acids peptide bond amino acid ribo- trna mrna transla- codon anticodon

Explanation:

• A: Translation is the process of protein synthesis where the mRNA sequence is decoded.
• B: mRNA (messenger RNA) carries the genetic code from DNA to the ribosome.
• C: tRNA (transfer RNA) brings amino acids to the ribosome.
• D: Ribosome is the site of protein synthesis.
• E: Anticodon is a sequence on tRNA that pairs with the codon on mRNA.
• F: Codon is a sequence of three nucleotides on mRNA that codes for an amino acid.

Answer:

A. translation, B. mRNA, C. tRNA, D. ribosome, E. anticodon, F. codon
