D. codon on the mRNA and the anticodon on the tRNA to which the amino acid is attached.

__________

On my packet it says answer C. Codon on the mRNA and the anticodon on the tRNA

but it's all the same thing XD

When does the polypeptide stop growing?

The polypeptide stops growing when it reaches a stop codon on the mRNA during translation. This signals the ribosome to release the polypeptide chain, which then undergoes further processing to become a functional protein.


What regions of a ribosome holds the growing polypeptide?

The P site and the A site of the ribosome hold the growing polypeptide chain during translation. The P site is where the tRNA carrying the growing polypeptide is located, and the A site is where the new tRNA carrying the next amino acid in the sequence enters.


The step of translation in which amino acids are added one at a time to the growing polypeptide is?

The step of translation in which amino acids are added one at a time to the growing polypeptide is called elongation. During elongation, transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules carrying amino acids enter the ribosome and add their amino acids to the growing chain in a sequence determined by the mRNA codons.


What is produced during the process of translation?

A chain or a polypeptide is usually produced during the process of translation. This will later change into a protein.


What is the purpose of a transfer RNA?

Transfer RNA (tRNA) plays a crucial role in protein synthesis by carrying specific amino acids to the ribosome during translation. Each tRNA molecule has an anticodon region that binds to the corresponding codon on messenger RNA, ensuring that the correct amino acid is added to the growing polypeptide chain.


What is added to the polypeptide strand?

Amino acids are added to the growing polypeptide strand during protein synthesis. Ribosomes facilitate the process by reading the mRNA and catalyzing the formation of peptide bonds between the amino acids. This results in the elongation of the polypeptide chain until a stop codon is reached.


Decoding of an mRNA message into a polypeptide chain and protein is call?

Translation is the process of decoding an mRNA message into a polypeptide chain and ultimately a protein. During translation, the ribosome reads the mRNA codons and matches them to the corresponding amino acids to assemble the protein chain.


Why methionine is the first amino acid in every growing polypeptide?

Start Codon Methionine's code is AUG which is also a start codon causing initiation of translation.


During translation a messenger rna codon is paired with?

During translation, a messenger RNA (mRNA) codon is paired with a transfer RNA (tRNA) anticodon through complementary base pairing. This process ensures that the correct amino acid is added to the growing polypeptide chain.


When is the new Amino acid added to the polypeptide chain?

The new amino acid is added to the polypeptide chain during the elongation phase of translation. This occurs when the ribosome reads the mRNA codon and brings in the corresponding tRNA with the attached amino acid. The amino acid is then added to the growing polypeptide chain through peptide bond formation.


Where is the tRNA located that is attached to the growing protein during translation?

The tRNA that is attached to the growing protein during translation is located at the ribosome.


What is the RNA molecule that transfers amino acids to the growing end of a polypeptide chain during translation?

The RNA molecule responsible for transferring amino acids to the growing end of a polypeptide chain during translation is called transfer RNA (tRNA). Each tRNA molecule carries a specific amino acid and has an anticodon region that base pairs with the corresponding codon on the mRNA.
