What is the role of ribosomes in protein synthesis?

Back

Ribosomes are the sites where proteins are assembled from amino acids.

Front

What is the function of tRNA in protein synthesis?

Back

tRNA transports amino acids to the ribosome during translation.

Front

What is the difference between transcription and translation?

Back

Transcription is the process of making mRNA from DNA, while translation is the process of making proteins from mRNA.

Front

What is the role of mRNA in protein synthesis?

Back

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