DNA Transcription and Translation Lesson

Type of RNA that transports amino acids to the ribosome.

• DNA

• Ribosomal RNA

• Transfer RNA

• RNA

Type of RNA that carrier genetic information from DNA in the nucleus to direct protein synthesis in the cytoplasm.

• Typical RNA

• Messenger

  RNA

• Transfer RNA

• Development RNA

Process in which mRNA is synthesized from the template DNA.

• transcription

• codon

• translation

• electrons

Enzyme that regulates RNA synthesis.

• translation

• DNA polymerase

• RNA polymerase

• transcription

If DNA undergoes transcription to create an mRNA strand, match the codons of mRNA (bottom row) to the triplets of DNA (top row)

• UAC

• ATG

• CAG

• GTC

• GCU

• TAG

• UAA

• GCA

• AUC

• ATT
