To determine which answer choice is correct, we can analyze the given information: "Three-letter segments of mRNA code for specific __________."
The given options are:
1. Responses
2. Sickle cells
3. Amino acids
4. Chromosomes
5. Disorders
Looking at the options, it is clear that the correct answer is "Amino acids." This is because, in the context of mRNA, three-letter segments known as codons code for specific amino acids. Each codon consists of three nucleotide bases found in mRNA, and each codon corresponds to a specific amino acid or a signal to start or stop protein synthesis.
Hence, the correct answer is that three-letter segments of mRNA code for specific amino acids.
