Front

What is the correct order of protein synthesis?

Back

DNA → mRNA → protein

Front

What controls the production of protein in the cell?

Back

DNA controls the production of protein in the cell.

Front

Where does translation (protein synthesis) occur?

Back

Ribosome

Front

What is mRNA?

Back

mRNA (messenger RNA) is a type of RNA that carries genetic information from DNA to the ribosome for protein synthesis.

Front

What are amino acids?

Back

Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins.

Front

What is the role of ribosomes in protein synthesis?

Back

Ribosomes are the cellular structures where translation occurs, synthesizing proteins from amino acids.

Front

What is the function of tRNA?

Back

tRNA (transfer RNA) brings amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis.

Front

What is the significance of the genetic code?

Back

The genetic code is a set of rules that defines how the sequence of nucleotides in DNA or RNA is translated into amino acids.

Front

What is transcription?

Back

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

Front

What is the difference between DNA and RNA?

Back

DNA is double-stranded and contains the sugar deoxyribose, while RNA is single-stranded and contains the sugar ribose.
