Front

What molecule is created during TRANSCRIPTION?

Back

mRNA

Front

Which type of RNA carries the instructions for a particular trait?

Back

mRNA only

Front

What is the role of mRNA in protein synthesis?

Back

mRNA carries the genetic information from DNA to the ribosome for protein synthesis.

Front

What is the function of tRNA?

Back

tRNA transports amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis.

Front

What is the role of ribosomes in protein synthesis?

Back

Ribosomes are the sites where translation occurs, synthesizing proteins from mRNA.

Front

What is transcription?

Back

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

Front

What is translation?

Back

Translation is the process of decoding mRNA to synthesize proteins.
