Question

UUU, CCC, AAA, GGG are the codons codes for the following amino acids respectively:

• A. Phe, Val, Gly, Lys
• B. Phe, Pro, Lys, Gly
• C. Phe, Gly, Pro, Asp
• D. Gly, Asp, Lys, Pro

Hint:

You can use a codon table to determine the amino acids encoded by specific mRNA codons. The codons provided in this question are all well-known in standard genetic codes.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

The codons and their corresponding amino acids are as follows:
- UUU corresponds to Phenylalanine (Phe).
- CCC corresponds to Proline (Pro).
- AAA corresponds to Lysine (Lys).
- GGG corresponds to Glycine (Gly). Thus, the correct sequence of amino acids for the given codons is Phe, Pro, Lys, Gly, which corresponds to option (2).
