Question

The central dogma of molecular biology is centered upon the process of protein synthesis, in which the information from DNA is transcribed and translated, resulting in multiple amino acids being joined to form _______________.

A)lipids
B)proteins
C)carbohydrates
D)nucleic acids

Answer 1

The correct response would be that multiple amino acids would be joined together to form B. Proteins.

Answer 2

The multiple amino acids join to form the proteins.

• Proteins are the biomolecules which are made up of either one or more chains of amino acids.

• The amino acids join together by peptide bond and form the polypeptide. The sequence of amino acids that make up the polypeptide is dictated by the DNA sequence.

• The polypeptides formed ultimately give rise to functional proteins by associating either with more chains or by acquiring active spatial conformations due to several interactions.
