Question

Match column-I with Column-II and select the correct option:

Column -I	Column -II
(I)AUG	(p) Phenyl alanine
(II)UAA	(q) Methionine
(III)UUU	(r) Tryptophan
(IV)UGG	(s) Termination

• A. (I-p), (II-q), (III-r), (IV-s)
• B. (I-s), (II-q), (III-r), (IV-p)
• C. (I-q), (II-s), (III-p), (IV-r)
• D. (I-q), (II-s), (III-r), (IV-p)

Answer 1

The correct option is C (I-q), (II-s), (III-p), (IV-r)

Methionine is specified by the codon AUG, which is also known as the start codon.

The codon UUU specifically codes for the amino acid phenylalanine.

A stop codon (Termination codon) is one of three triplets (UAG, UAA, UGA) that causes protein synthesis to terminate.

UGG is the codon specific to tryptophan.

So, the correct answer is "option D"
