Question

The codon shows how different combinations of mRNA nucleotides code for various amino acids what two amino acids are coded for by an mRNA segment reading GAG GAC

Answer 1

Glutamic acid and Aspartic acid.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the information obtained from a genetic code chart (an example can be seen in the attached image), the mRNA codon GAG translates to an amino acid named Glutamic acid while the mRNA GAC translates to an amino acid named Aspartic acid.

Hence, the two amino acids are coded for by an mRNA segment reading GAG GAC are Glutamic acid and Aspartic acid respectively.
