Question

the process of assembling a sequence of amino acids from the information on mrna is called _. a transcription b translation c transfection d transformation question 4 why does a cell have an intermediate, mrna, when making a protein? a to protect the dna b to allow the cell to make multiple proteins c both answers are correct question 5 g always pairs with c in dna. when making mrna, g in dna pairs with __ in rna. a a b c c g d u

Explanation:

• For the first question, translation is the process of using mRNA to assemble amino - acids into proteins. Transcription is making mRNA from DNA, transfection is introducing foreign nucleic acids into cells, and transformation is the uptake of foreign DNA by bacteria.
• For the second question, mRNA serves as an intermediate in protein synthesis. It protects the DNA as DNA doesn't need to leave the nucleus and be exposed to potential damage in the cytoplasm. Also, one mRNA can be used to make multiple copies of a protein.
• For the third question, in RNA, instead of thymine (T) as in DNA, uracil (U) is present. So when DNA's G pairs with something in RNA during mRNA synthesis, it pairs with C (complementary base - pairing rules still apply with the substitution of U for T in RNA).

Answer:

B. Translation
C. Both answers are correct
B. C
