Question

which statement summarizes the relationship between dna, proteins, and amino acids?
o the dna molecule is a protein formed by amino acids that are linked together by peptide bonds.
o the type of protein that composes dna codes for the twenty different amino acids.
o the sequence of amino acids in dna determines the type of protein formed during protein synthesis.
o the sequence of nucleotides in dna codes for specific amino acids which bond to form proteins.

Explanation:

• DNA is composed of nucleotides.
• The sequence of nucleotides in DNA (through the genetic code) codes for specific amino acids.
• Amino acids bond (via peptide bonds) to form proteins.

Answer:

The sequence of nucleotides in DNA codes for specific amino acids which bond to form proteins.
