Final answer:
The mRNA sequence 5' AUG-UCU-UCG-UUA-UCC-UUG 3' translates to the amino acid sequence Methionine - Serine - Serine - Leucine - Serine - Leucine, corresponding to option (a).
Step-by-step explanation:
The amino acid sequence generated from the given mRNA sequence 5' AUG-UCU-UCG-UUA-UCC-UUG 3' can be determined by using a genetic code table, which matches each set of three nucleotides (a codon) to a corresponding amino acid.
By consulting the genetic code table:
- AUG codes for Methionine (Met).
- UCU and UCG code for Serine (Ser).
- UUA and UUG code for Leucine (Leu).
- UCC codes for Serine (Ser) as well.
Therefore, we get the following amino acid sequence: Methionine - Serine - Serine - Leucine - Serine - Leucine, which corresponds to choice (a).
