Front

What is the role of ribosomes in protein synthesis?

Back

Ribosomes are the sites where proteins are assembled from amino acids.

Front

What is transcription in the context of protein synthesis?

Back

Transcription is the process of copying a segment of DNA into mRNA.

Front

What is translation in protein synthesis?

Back

Translation is the process where mRNA is decoded to build a protein.

Front

What are amino acids?

Back

Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins.

Front

What is the function of tRNA in protein synthesis?

Back

tRNA transports amino acids to the ribosome during translation.
