If a single strand of a gene contains 726 bases, 242 amino acids will make up the polypeptide prepared from it, assuming every base of the gene is transcribed and then translated. select one:
a. True
b. False

The answer is true. During translation of mRNA, the nucleotides are read by the translation unit (ribosome and trna) in sequences of three (3). These sequences are referred to as codons. Codons code for amino acids. Some codons are start of stop codons meaning they initiate or terminate translation. Additionally, more that one codon could code for one amino acid.
