Question

RNA synthesis is also known as: a termination. b. elongation. c. translation. d. reverse transcription. e. transcription. Ribose differs from deoxyribose by having: a. two attached nitrogenous bases. b. one less oxygen. c. an extra hydroxyl group. d. an extra carbon in the ring. e. one less carbon in the ring. The process in which RNA is synthesized using a DNA template is called translation. True False The wobble hypothesis states that: a. more than one ribosome can bind to an mRNA molecule. b. a particular amino acid may be linked to more than one type of tRNA molecule. c. certain tRNA anticodons can pair with more than one codon sequence. d. some amino acids are coded for by more than one codon. e. there is more than one stop codon in the genetic code.

Explanation / Answer

Answer:

36. (e) Transcription

37. (c) has extra hydroxyl group

38. False.

The process by which RNA is synthesized using a DNA template is transcription. Translation is the synthesis of proteins using mRNA as the template.

39. (d) some amino acids are coded for by more than one codon.
