Question

In each problem the DNA Triplet code is given.  Determine the mRNA codon using base pairing and write the mRNA CODON into the blank. Using the mRNA CODON you identify in each problem and using the amino acid chart on the next page, identify the corresponding 3-letter amino acid (abbreviation) to place in each amino acid blank. 

1. AAC (DNA TRIPLET) = _______(mRNA CODON) = _________ AMINO ACID
2. TCG (DNA TRIPLET) = _______ (mRNA CODON) = _________AMINO ACID
3. CTT (DNA TRIPLET) = _______ (mRNA CODON) = _________ AMINO ACID
4. GGT (DNA TRIPLET) = _______ (mRNA CODON) = _________ AMINO ACID
