During translation, nucleotide base triplets (codons) in mRNA are read in sequence in the 5’ → 3’ direction along the mRNA. Amino acids are specified by the string of codons. What amino acid sequence does the following mRNA nucleotide sequence specify? 5′−AUGGCAAG−3′

The sequence is Met-Ala-Arg-Lys

Explanation: "Reading" of RNAm starts at 5' and ends at 3'. It reads 3 nucleotides (codons) and add only one specific amino acid.

The relation of codons and aminoacids (which codon decodes which aminoacid) is the genetic code and it can be found in a table called codon table. To interpret the table, we have to:

1) Look for the first letter of the codon at the left side of the table;

2) The second letter of the codon is found at the top of the table;

3) After finding the first and the second, you will find a specific box, containing all the combinations;

4) Look for thte third nucleotide and then relate the codon to the aminoacid;

For this sequence, RNA will read:

AUG and will add aminoacid Met

GCA is Ala

AGA is Arg

AAA is Lys

Therefore, the sequence of aminoacids is Met-Ala-Arg-Lys.

correct answer: biotic and abiotic limitations

carrying capacity is defined as the total number of an organism who can be supported in a given area within the natural resources limit and without harming or degrading the natural, economic or the cultural environment present for the future generations.

carrying capacity is determined by the limiting factors, which are known to affect the natural resources available. it may include water, nutrients, minerals, space, light etc.
