I took the quiz and these are 100% the correct answers.

The answers can be explained as:

1. Amino acids are the building block of proteins and are used to synthesize polypeptides. The amino acids are coded by codons, the sequence of three nucleotides. The codon ACC codes for amino acid threonine.

2. Phenylalanine is an amino acid, which is coded by the codons UUU and UUC. Phenylalanine is a type of essential amino acid, which is obtained from external resources.

3. The codons are linked together by peptide bonds, which result in the formation of polypeptides. In the codon sequence, AUGGUCGGU, the amino acids present are methionine (AUG), valine (GUC), and Glycine (GGU).

4. mRNA or messenger RNA is a single-stranded molecule, which carries the information from DNA to RNA. The mRNA undergoes transcription and translation to produce the required sequence of proteins.
