To determine the amino acid sequence generated from the given mRNA codon sequence (5'-AUG-UCU-UCG-UUA-UCC-UUG-3'), we need to translate each codon into its corresponding amino acid:
1. AUG - Methionine (Met)
2. UCU - Serine (Ser)
3. UCG - Serine (Ser)
4. UUA - Leucine (Leu)
5. UCC - Serine (Ser)
6. UUG - Leucine (Leu)
Putting it all together, the amino acid sequence is:
**Met-Ser-Ser-Leu-Ser-Leu**
The correct answer from the options provided is:
**Met-Ser-Ser-Leu-Ser-Leu**
1. AUG - Methionine (Met)
2. UCU - Serine (Ser)
3. UCG - Serine (Ser)
4. UUA - Leucine (Leu)
5. UCC - Serine (Ser)
6. UUG - Leucine (Leu)
Putting it all together, the amino acid sequence is:
**Met-Ser-Ser-Leu-Ser-Leu**
The correct answer from the options provided is:
**Met-Ser-Ser-Leu-Ser-Leu**
