Front

What determines the genetic code of a DNA molecule?

Back

The order (sequence) of the nitrogen bases.

Front

What is the correct flow of genetic information?

Back

DNA -> RNA -> Protein

Front

Back

Nucleus

Front

During which process does mRNA occur?

Back

Transcription

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 are the building blocks of proteins?

Back

Amino acids.

Front

What is the function of ribosomes in protein synthesis?

Back

Ribosomes are the sites where translation occurs, synthesizing proteins from mRNA.

Front

What is the difference between transcription and translation?

Back

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

Front

What is the role of tRNA in protein synthesis?

Back

tRNA transports amino acids to the ribosome during translation.
