Front

Which type of RNA carries the genetic message?

Back

mRNA

Front

True or false: RNA is double-stranded.

Back

False

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 difference between DNA and RNA?

Back

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

Front

What are the three types of RNA involved in protein synthesis?

Back

mRNA, tRNA, and rRNA.

Front

What does tRNA do during translation?

Back

tRNA brings the appropriate amino acids to the ribosome based on the codon sequence of mRNA.

Front

What is a codon?

Back

A codon is a sequence of three nucleotides in mRNA that corresponds to a specific amino acid.
