AIIMS 2018 Botany Biology MCQ Question
Which of the following correctly assigns the codons for glycine?
GGG, GGC, GGA
AAA, AAG, AAC
AUG, AUA, AUC
CCC, CCG, CGA
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The correct answer is A) GGG, GGC, GGA because these are the specific codons that code for the amino acid glycine in the genetic code. Codons are sequences of three nucleotides in mRNA that correspond to specific amino acids, and glycine is uniquely represented by the codons GGG, GGC, and GGA. The other options represent codons for different amino acids, making them incorrect for this question.
