The process of translation or protein synthesis terminates when a particular site of ribosome encounters a termination codon. Name the site.

Assertion (A): Some codons act as terminating or stop codons. Reason ( R): 3 codons do not code for any amino acids.

Assertion :- UGG is a chain termination codon. Reason : It does not code any amino acid.

The codons causing chain termination (stop codons) are

Assertion (A): During elongation of a polypeptide chain, the amino acid-tRNA complexes, sequentially bind to the A-site of the ribosome. Reason (R): This binding prepared the complex for termination of translation.

Assertion : Untranslated regions are sequences of RNA before initiation codon and after termination codon. Reason : Untranslated regions provide stability to mRNA and also increase translational efficiency.

Synthesis of polypetide terminates when a nonsense codon of mRNA reaches

Assertion (A) : Replication and transcription occur in the nucleus but translation occurs in the cytoplasm. Reason (R ) : m-RNA is transferred from the nucleus into the cytoplasm where ribosomes and amino acids are available for protein synthesis.
