Which mrna sequence codes for the amino acid sequence leu-gly-asp-arg? select one:

a. 5' cua ggu gau agc 3'

b. 5' cua cag gau aga 3'

c. 5' aga gau gga uua 3'

d. 5' uua gga gau aga 3'?

D. 5' uua gga gau aga 3'?

Answer;

D. 5' UUA GGA GAU AGA 3'

The mRNA sequence that codes for the amino acid sequence leu-gly-asp-arg

5' UUA GGA GAU AGA 3'.

Explanation;

A codon is a sequence of three DNA or RNA sequence that corresponds with a specific amino acid or stop signal during protein synthesis.

In this case; UUA codes for amino acid Leucine, GGA codes for glycine, GAU codes for aspartate and AGA codes for arginine
