1. The problem asks: What is the purpose of the process shown, which involves an mRNA sequence and its corresponding amino acids? 2. The process described is the translation of mRNA into a sequence of amino acids. 3. Key biological processes related to DNA and RNA include: - DNA replication: copying DNA before cell division. - Transcription: assembling mRNA from a DNA template. - Translation: decoding mRNA to synthesize a chain of amino acids (proteins). 4. The mRNA sequence (5' to 3') is read in codons (triplets) to produce amino acids, as shown (Leu, Ala, Ala, Leu, Ala). 5. This matches the process of translation, where the genetic code in mRNA is translated into a specific amino acid sequence. 6. Therefore, the purpose of this process is: **To translate the genetic code into a specific sequence of amino acids.**
