Question

Use the codon chart below to determine the bases that will code for the amino acid Methionine (Met).



(1 point)
Uracil Cytosine Adenine Guanine
First Base




Second Base




Third Base

Answer 1

To code for the amino acid Methionine (Met), we can refer to the standard genetic code. Methionine is coded by the codon AUG.

Here is the breakdown of the codon:

- First Base: Adenine (A)
- Second Base: Uracil (U)
- Third Base: Guanine (G)

So, the bases that will code for Methionine (Met) are:

1. First Base: A (Adenine)
2. Second Base: U (Uracil)
3. Third Base: G (Guanine)
