Front

What is the difference between transcription and translation?

Back

Transcription is the process of copying DNA to RNA, while translation is the process of synthesizing proteins from RNA.

Front

What is cellular respiration?

Back

A process that converts glucose and oxygen into energy (ATP), carbon dioxide, and water.
