I believe you meant for your code to say; "I want to sit and study Natural Selection at school and eat pizza."
Although, I noticed and error before and after your sentence. You began your sentance with the word "evolve" and then you put the start codon second and at the end of the sentence, you put a stop codon and then the word "about." I don't think the codes for "evolve" and "about" should be in this code. Is that right?
Sorry, I forgot to write the entire sentence as is when I decoded it above; "Evolve (start codon) I want to sit and study Natural Selection at school and eat pizza (stop codon) about."
You got it right! But I purposely put those there, on the assignment guidelines, Professor Rodriguez mentioned towards the end to add random bases to the start and end of our DNA strand. I apologize if this confused you while decoding it.
Desiree, good code and good response to Christina.
Christina, good decode, but as Desiree explained, the last set of instructions in the guidelines asked you to include random bases at the beginning and end of your code to make your decoder look for those start and stop codons. I referred to this in my email. Otherwise, your process is accurate.
My decode is below:
DNA: GCTTACCAAGGGAACGGTAGTGGCCCCCCATGCAGTGTCTGAATCAGC RNA: CGAAUGGUUCCCUUGCCAUCACCGGGGGGUACGUCACAGACUUAGUCG Codons: AUG GUU CCC UUG CCA UCA CCG GGG GGU ACG UCA CAG ACU UAG (start) I want to sit and study natural selection at school and eat pizza. (stop)

Hi Professor,
DeleteOkay, got it. I just thought that the random bases were not supposed to spell out a word. Thank you for clarifying!
