DNA Transcription and Translation Quiz

Transcribe the following DNA sequence into RNA: TACGATCGTACG

Evaluate responses using AI:

OFF

Answer explanation

To transcribe the given DNA sequence (TACGATCGTACG) into RNA, we need to replace the DNA nucleotides with their corresponding RNA nucleotides. The RNA nucleotides are A, U, C, and G. The transcription process involves replacing T with U, A with U, C with G, and G with C.

Translate the following mRNA sequence into a protein: AUGUCAUACGAU

Evaluate responses using AI:

OFF

Answer explanation

The mRNA sequence AUGUCAUACGAU can be translated into a protein by dividing it into codons and converting each codon into its corresponding amino acid.

Given the DNA sequence CGTATCGGAGCT, what is the complementary mRNA sequence?

Evaluate responses using AI:

OFF

Answer explanation

The complementary mRNA sequence is formed by transcribing the DNA sequence. In this process, adenine (A) pairs with uracil (U), cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G), and guanine (G) pairs with cytosine (C).

Transcribe the DNA sequence AGTCTAGCG into RNA.

Evaluate responses using AI:

OFF

Answer explanation

To transcribe the DNA sequence AGTCTAGCG into RNA, we need to replace the DNA nucleotides with their corresponding RNA nucleotides. Adenine (A) pairs with Uracil (U), Guanine (G) pairs with Cytosine (C), and vice versa.

Translate the mRNA sequence UAUCCGAUG into a protein.

Evaluate responses using AI:

OFF

Answer explanation

The mRNA sequence UAUCCGAUG translates into a protein through the process of translation. Each set of three nucleotides, called a codon, corresponds to a specific amino acid.

Given the DNA sequence ATCGGATCG, what is the complementary mRNA sequence?

Evaluate responses using AI:

OFF

Answer explanation

The complementary mRNA sequence is formed by transcribing the given DNA sequence. In this process, adenine (A) pairs with uracil (U), thymine (T) pairs with adenine (A), cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G), and guanine (G) pairs with cytosine (C).

Transcribe the DNA sequence CAAATGACG into RNA.

Evaluate responses using AI:

OFF

Answer explanation

The transcription of DNA into RNA involves replacing each nucleotide with its RNA equivalent. The DNA nucleotides adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), and thymine (T) correspond to the RNA nucleotides uracil (U), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and adenine (A), respectively.

Translate the mRNA sequence UGUCCGAAU into a protein.

Evaluate responses using AI:

OFF

Answer explanation

To translate the mRNA sequence UGUCCGAAU into a protein, we need to convert the mRNA codons into their corresponding amino acids. The sequence can be divided into codons as UGU, CCG, and AAU.

Given the DNA sequence GCTACGATGC, what is the complementary mRNA sequence?

Evaluate responses using AI:

OFF

Answer explanation

The complementary mRNA sequence is formed by transcribing the DNA sequence. In this process, adenine (A) pairs with uracil (U), cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G), and guanine (G) pairs with cytosine (C).

Transcribe the DNA sequence GGAACCTAG into RNA.

Evaluate responses using AI:

OFF

Answer explanation

The transcription of DNA into RNA involves replacing each nucleotide with its RNA equivalent. The DNA nucleotide adenine (A) pairs with uracil (U) in RNA, thymine (T) pairs with adenine (A), cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G), and guanine (G) pairs with cytosine (C).
