उत्तर
Phenylalanine, Methionine
Explanation:
| 3' AUCAGGUUUGUGAUGGUACGA 5' | |
| ↑ | ↑ |
| Position | Position |
| 3 | 5 |
Codons UUU and AUG represent the amino acids phenylalanine and methionine, respectively. Therefore, during the process of translation, the amino acids phenylalanine and methionine would be merged at codon positions 3 and 5, accordingly.
