Question

1. what is a process where mrna is decoded to create a protein? * 1 point adenine amino acids chromosome codons cytosine dna guanine mrna nucleotides protein thymine transcription translation trna uracil

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Adenine: A nitrogenous base, not a process.
• Amino acids: Building blocks of proteins, not a process.
• Chromosome: Structure for DNA, not a process.
• Codons: mRNA triplets, not a process.
• Cytosine: A nitrogenous base, not a process.
• DNA: Genetic material, not the process of decoding mRNA.
• Guanine: A nitrogenous base, not a process.
• mRNA: The molecule being decoded, not the process.
• Nucleotides: Building blocks of nucleic acids, not a process.
• Protein: Product, not the process.
• Thymine: A nitrogenous base, not a process.
• Transcription: Process of making mRNA from DNA, not decoding mRNA.
• Translation: The process where mRNA is decoded to synthesize a protein.
• tRNA: Transfers amino acids, not the decoding process.
• Uracil: A nitrogenous base, not a process.

Answer:

Translation (the option labeled "Translation" in the choices)
