- Q1What is the primary function of mRNA in protein synthesis?To transport nutrients within the cellTo catalyze biochemical reactionsTo carry the genetic information from DNA to the ribosomesTo assemble amino acids into proteins30s
- Q2Which process follows transcription in the process of protein synthesis?ReplicationTranslationDNA repairTranscription30s
- Q3What role do ribosomes play in protein synthesis?They serve as the site of translationThey degrade old proteinsThey synthesize mRNAThey are responsible for DNA replication30s
- Q4What are the building blocks of proteins?MonosaccharidesNucleotidesFatty acidsAmino acids30s
- Q5During which stage of protein synthesis is mRNA created?TranslationPost-Translation modificationTranscriptionReplication30s
- Q6Which molecule provides the template for protein synthesis?tRNADNArRNAmRNA30s
- Q7What type of RNA brings amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis?mRNAtRNArRNAsnRNA30s
- Q8What is the purpose of the start codon during translation?It stops the translation processIt signals the beginning of protein synthesisIt codes for the last amino acidIt helps in the replication of DNA30s
- Q9What happens during the process of elongation in translation?The ribosome disassembles after protein synthesistRNA binds to the ribosome and releases its amino acidAmino acids are sequentially added to the growing polypeptide chainThe mRNA is transcribed from DNA30s
- Q10Which of the following describes the structure of a ribosome?A single strand of mRNAA floral structure in plantsA DNA moleculeA complex made of rRNA and proteins30s
