Answer:

The correct answer is - B) methionine, cysteine, lysine, tryptophan

Step-by-step explanation:

Amino acid chain or sequence depends on the codes or the information mRNA is copied from the DNA sequence. The DNA sequence is the sequence of the nitrogenous bases that are coded or copied by mRNA in the complementary sequence and then translate into an amino acid sequence:

DNA: TACACGTTCACC

mRNA: AUG-UGC-AAG-UGG

Amino acid sequence: methionine, cysteine, lysine, tryptophan
