Protein Synthesis Quiz

What is the first step in protein synthesis?

• Mutation

• Replication

• Translation

• Transcription

What is the role of mRNA in protein synthesis?

• mRNA helps in the production of ATP in the mitochondria

• mRNA is responsible for breaking down proteins in the cell

• mRNA carries genetic information from DNA to the ribosomes for protein synthesis

• mRNA acts as a structural component of the ribosomes

What is the genetic code and how is it related to protein synthesis?

• The genetic code is the set of rules by which information encoded in genetic material (DNA or RNA sequences) is translated into proteins.

• The genetic code is a type of encryption used to protect genetic information

• The genetic code is a system for organizing genetic mutations

• The genetic code is a type of barcode used to identify different species

What are codons and how do they relate to the translation process?

• Codons are sequences of three nucleotides in mRNA that specify a particular amino acid or signal the start or stop of protein synthesis.

• Codons are sequences of three nucleotides in DNA that specify a particular nucleotide or signal the start or stop of protein synthesis.

• Codons are sequences of three nucleotides in tRNA that specify a particular amino acid or signal the start or stop of protein synthesis.

• Codons are sequences of four nucleotides in mRNA that specify a particular amino acid or signal the start or stop of protein synthesis.

What is the function of ribosomes in protein synthesis?

• Cell division

• Waste elimination

• Energy production

• Protein synthesis

Explain the process of transcription in protein synthesis.

• RNA polymerase binds to RNA and creates a complementary DNA strand

• Protein polymerase binds to DNA and creates a complementary protein strand

• DNA polymerase binds to RNA and creates a complementary DNA strand

• RNA polymerase binds to DNA and creates a complementary RNA strand

Describe the process of translation in protein synthesis.

• The mRNA sequence is converted into DNA

• The mRNA sequence is decoded to build a specific protein.

• The protein sequence is transcribed into mRNA

• The process involves the synthesis of carbohydrates

What are the three types of RNA involved in protein synthesis?

• tRNA, mRNA, protein

• mRNA, tRNA, rRNA

• rRNA, tRNA, DNA

• DNA, RNA, mRNA

How does the process of protein synthesis differ in prokaryotes and eukaryotes?

• The location of protein synthesis differs, with prokaryotes synthesizing proteins in the cytoplasm and eukaryotes synthesizing proteins in the cytoplasm and on the rough endoplasmic reticulum.

• The process of protein synthesis is the same in prokaryotes and eukaryotes

• Prokaryotes synthesize proteins on the rough endoplasmic reticulum

• Eukaryotes synthesize proteins in the nucleus

we have DNA Non Temple sequel for eye color gene, 3'-TATATAGGCAGTCGACCT-5'. What is the template for those DNA?

• 5'-TATATAGGCAGTCGACCT-3'
• 5'-TATATAGGCTCAGTGCCA-3'
• 5'-ATATATCCGTCAGCTGGA-3'
• 5'-ATATATGGCTCAGTGCCA-3'
