Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The process in which the nucleic acid sequence information is changed into amino acid sequence is
A
replication
B
transcription
C
translation
D
breaking the code
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Translation, then, is one stage in the process in which the cell’s genetic information is used to create proteins. The cell’s DNA is first transcribed in a temporary copy (mRNA), which is then translated into the amino acid sequence of a protein. amino acids – twenty molecules that are the building blocks of proteins.

Detailed explanation-2: -The correct answer: Translation is the process of converting the language of nucleic acids (nucleotides) to the language of proteins (amino acids). The translation is the process in which the protein strand is produced from the mRNA molecule.

Detailed explanation-3: -Transcription simply transforms a DNA string into an RNA string by replacing all occurrences of “T” with “U". The resulting strand of RNA is translated into an amino acid sequence via the genetic code; this process converts each 3-mer of RNA, called a codon, into one of 20 amino acids.

Detailed explanation-4: -(trans-LAY-shun) In biology, the process by which a cell makes proteins using the genetic information carried in messenger RNA (mRNA). The mRNA is made by copying DNA, and the information it carries tells the cell how to link amino acids together to form proteins.

Detailed explanation-5: -Translation of an mRNA molecule by the ribosome occurs in three stages: initiation, elongation, and termination.
