Which is true about primary structure?
Correct answer: D. Result of translation
- A. Result of replication
- B. Result of termination
- C. Result of duplication
- D. Result of translation
Explanation
Translation is the process where the sequence of nucleotides in mRNA is decoded into a sequence of amino acids, ultimately determining the primary structure of a protein. Each set of three nucleotides, called a codon, corresponds to a specific amino acid, allowing the mRNA sequence to be translated into a specific sequence of amino acids. Thus, translation directly influences the primary structure of proteins.

About Biological Molecules
The chapter covers water's polarity and biological roles, carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids, including their monomers, bonds, structures and functions. It also distinguishes RNA from DNA and explains conjugated molecules such as glycoproteins, glycolipids and nucleoproteins, which combine organic molecules with a non-protein component.
