To determine the sequence of amino acids from the given mRNA strand (AUG - AUC - UCG - UAA), we need to translate each codon using a codon chart.
1. **AUG**: Methionine (Met)
2. **AUC**: Isoleucine (Ile)
3. **UCG**: Serine (Ser)
4. **UAA**: Stop codon
Therefore, the sequence of amino acids is:
**Met - Ile - Ser - Stop**
So the correct response is: **Met - Ile - Ser - Stop**.
