Nucleotide triplets in the gene transcript known as _____________ specify the amino acids which will be added during translation.
A) Genes
B) Alleles
C) Codons
D) Anticodons
E) tRNA

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Nucleotide triplets in the gene transcript are called codons and they specify which specific amino acid will be added during the process of translation. Genes are the specific units of heredity that are responsible for traits. Alleles are different versions of a gene. Anticodons are the complementary sequence to codons found on tRNA molecules that bring specific amino acids to the ribosome during translation. tRNA is the molecule responsible for carrying amino acids to the ribosome during translation.
