Polypeptides are

(1) dictated by DNA

(2)represented by mRNA

(3)Expresssion of t-RNA

(4)Both 1 and 2

Choose the correct statements –
I. Binding of mRNA to the ribosome is loose and reversible.
II. The ribosome, which is composed of tRNA and proteins, consists of a small and large subunit.
III. Each of the 20 amino acids has a minimum of one specific tRNA molecule.
IV. tRNA^MET binds to the first codon (AUG) – this is called the START codon.
V. The second tRNA binds to the second codon so that their attached monosaccharides are next to each other.
VI. The newly formed polypeptide may undergo post-transcriptional modification.

1. I, III and IV
2. II, IV, VI
3. II, V and VI
4. I, V, VI.
