AP Biology Protein Synthesis

What is the role of mRNA

• Carry an amino acid to the ribosome

• Copy the instructions from DNA and carry it out of the nucleus

• Make up the ribosomes

Where does Translation occur?

• Nucleus

• Ribosome

• ER

• Chloroplast

What is the end product of translation?

• mRNA that can leave the nucleus

• Amino acid chain

• monosaccharide chain

• Anticodon

This type of RNA transports amino acids to the ribosome for protein synthesis.

• mRNA

• rRNA

• tRNA

• All of the above

Which RNA brings amino acids?

• rRNA

• tRNA

• mRNA

If there is an error in transcription, what could happen as a result?

• The nucleotides that make up the protein will change.

• The protein that is made will not be affected.

• New amino acids will be created to make a new protein.

• The protein that is made may have a different structure or function.
