Which of the following statements about the use of synthetic polynucleotides in cracking the genetic code is true? a) Particular codons are generated in predictable ratios with random RNA polymers containing specific ratios of different nucleotides.
b) Poly(A) RNA directs the synthesis of only polylysine in vitro.
c) Three different amino acids are incorporated into peptides when synthetic polymers of only one nucleotide are used to synthesize the RNA primer.
d) The codon table was completed by using RNA polymers of defined sequences.

a) Particular codons are generated in predictable ratios with random RNA polymers containing specific ratios of different nucleotides.

b) Poly(A) RNA directs the synthesis of only polylysine in vitro.

d) The codon table was completed by using RNA polymers of defined sequences.

Explanation:

A polynucleotide molecule is defined as the biopolymer which is composed of thirteen nucleotide monomers or more monomers which is covalently bonded in the chain.

While using the synthetic polyneuclitide in the cracking of the genetic code, the translation of a that results in synthesis of the poly-lysine in the lab.

Some of the particular codons are produced by some specific ratios of a different nucleotides. This can be present in the different RNA polymers. Codon table includes the RNA polymers that contains nucleotides in some specific ratios.

Thus, the options (a), (b) and (d) are correct.

answer: the answer is b

i might be wrong but i think its a. let me know if i’m right and have a good rest of your day!
