Front

What is transcription in the context of protein synthesis?

Back

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

Front

What is translation in protein synthesis?

Back

Translation is the process where ribosomes synthesize proteins using mRNA.

Front

What are the four bases of DNA?

Back

Adenine (A), Thymine (T), Cytosine (C), Guanine (G).

Front

What is the function of mRNA?

Back

mRNA carries genetic information from DNA to the ribosome for protein synthesis.

Front

What is the role of tRNA in translation?

Back

tRNA transports amino acids to the ribosome and matches them to the mRNA sequence.
