Question

• Change the following DNA strands into Messenger RNA*
• Then read the new code three letters at a time. Give the correct amino acid names in
order that would be found in that protein and from those codes unscramble the
sentence. The amino acid names and the explanation of how to match up the new


1. TAC CTC CGC TCG TGT GGG TCC GAT TTT GGT ATG GAG.


2. TAC CTT CGG TAT CAA CGT AAG.


3. TAC CTC ACG ACC TTG.
Word bank to break the code:
GAG = is
ACA = of
CUC = be
AAA = and
AUG = science
GCC = the
GUU = to
UGG = favorite
UGC = my
AUA = key
GCA = the

Answer 1

i dont understand this anyone help @shrutipande9 @thomaster

Answer 2

Okay, we're going from DNA to RNA.

First, we need to learn how the letters match up with one another.
We need to learn the rules.

When we're going from DNA to RNA....

A goes to U
T goes to A
G goes to C
C goes to G

Four rules. Right? Yes?
Memorize them.

--------------

Let's look at #1.

The first DNA codon there is....(T A C).

Now, use the four rules.

If the DNA codon is (T A C)....
then the RNA codon, that matches up, would be....(A U G).

DNA codon -- (T A C)
RNA codon -- (A U G)

You get it?

Answer 3

UAC = will
CCA = whatGCG = the
AGC = knowledge
CCC = what
AGG = might
CUA = be
UUC = past
AAC = subject
GAA = is
forgot this part

Answer 4

You forgot that part?

Or do you mean to say that I forgot that part?

Answer 5

Oh okay never mind.

Answer 6

@InYourHead i understad that but as i go through the worksheet it ceases to match up withe the word bank

Answer 7

It doesn't matter.

That part is pretty straightforward.

Remember the first one that I did for you, as an example?
The answer was (A U G).

(A U G) - science.

So, the first word in sentence #1 is "science."

Answer 8

Hold on.

I'm gonna get a piece of paper and try to decipher the entire first sentence.

Answer 9

yes i know but if you continue it no longer matches any of the codes

Answer 10

@InYourHead i wrote all the things that match up

Answer 11

I think I see what you mean.

I'm looking at sentence #1.

The first word is "Science."

The second word is "is."

The third codon would transcribe to (G C G)
But (G C G) doesn't match up to any words on the list.

Is that what you mean?

Answer 12

yes

Answer 13

thats exactly what i mean

Answer 14

Have you double checked and triple checked, to make sure that every single letter. in the problems, was typed correctly?

Answer 15

yes i copy pasted it from the worksheet

Answer 16

http://www.blvs.org/gen/blvs_generated_bin/documents/basic_module/Transcription_Worksheet.pdf see if u can use this link

Answer 17

I just found (G C G).

The word is "the."

I didn't see it before,
because it was right next to another codon, on the list.

Hold on.

Answer 18

Were you ever able to finish the first sentence?

Answer 19

no

Answer 20

I just did.

Answer 21

I didn't need to use the link that you posted.

All the information here, on this post, is enough.

Look carefully and try it again.

Answer 22

ok brb

Answer 23

I'll walk you through it if you want.

We already know the first three words:

"Science"
"is"
"the"

Look at the fourth codon, in sentence #1.

It's (T C G).

What does (T C G) become?

Answer 24

UGC wich is my

Answer 25

No

Answer 26

I'll list the four rules again:

A goes to U
T goes to A
G goes to C
C goes to G

Answer 27

The DNA codon was (T C G).

T goes to A.
C goes to G.
G goes to C.

The RNA codon would be....(A G C)

Answer 28

UCG =UGC

Answer 29

No.

Answer 30

oh nvm

Answer 31

Have you finished sentence #1?

Answer 32

science is the knowledge of what might be and what will be

Answer 33

That's right/

Answer 34

thank you very much i fanned you and im giving u a medal

Answer 35

You're welcome.
