The process of protein synthesis during translation has three distinct phases: initiation, elongation, and termination. which of these dna sequences would be associated with termination during translation? a codon table is shown for your reference.
a) aca
b) acc
c) act
d) agt

C

A stop codon a 3 nucleotide sequence that terminates translation of protein in the translation complex (made of ribosome, mRNA, and tRNA). Remember translation is divided into; initiation , elongation, & termination

Explanation:

There are 3 stop codons on the mRNA that terminate translation and do not code for any amino acids. They are; UAG, UAA, and UGA. When translated to DNA code they are; ATC, ATT, and ACT respectively. Remember that RNA has no thymine base and in its pace is Uracil. Also that the stop codons on DNA and complementary to the template section on which they were transcribed.

c.) polymerase chain reaction

- "unlike the original dna fingerprinting method, dna profiling does not use restriction enzymes to cut the dna. instead it uses the polymerase chain reaction (pcr)? to produce many copies of specific str sequences. pcr is an automated procedure that generates lots of copies of a specific sequence of dna."

step 1: initiation

initiation is the beginning of transcription. it occurs when the enzyme rna polymerase binds to a region of a gene called the promoter. this signals the dna to unwind so the enzyme can ‘‘read’’ the bases in one of the dna strands. the enzyme is now ready to make a strand of mrna with a complementary sequence of bases.

step 2: elongation

elongation is the addition of nucleotides to the mrna strand. rna polymerase reads the unwound dna strand and builds the mrna molecule, using complementary base pairs. there is a brief time during this process when the newly formed rna is bound to the unwound dna. during this process, an adenine (a) in the dna binds to an uracil (u) in the rna.

step 3: termination

termination is the ending of transcription, and occurs when rna polymerase crosses a stop (termination) sequence in the gene. the mrna strand is complete, and it detaches from dna.
