Answer: A) They are the site of protein synthesis.

Explanation:

Ribosomes are small round organelles attached to the endoplasmic reticulum in cells, and serve as site of protein synthesis. This is possible because the transfer RNA assembles amino acids to form polypeptide chains right in the ribosomes.

A particular triplet of bases in the template strand of DNA is 5' AGT 3'. The corresponding codon for the mRNA transcribed is __
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is 3' UCA 5'

Explanation:

The rule of pairing of base-pair says that A and T base pairs with each other with two hydrogen bonds and G and C base pairs with each other with three hydrogen bonds in DNA. In the case of RNA Uracil comes at the place of thymine that means uracil replaces thymine.

Therefore according to this base-pairing rule the corresponding codon of mRNA transcribes from DNA codon 5' AGT 3' will be 3' UCA 5' as U came in place of A nucleotide, C comes in place of G nucleotide, and A comes in place of T nucleotide.  

Therefore the correct answer is 3' UCA 5'.
