Front

The process by which the genetic code of DNA is copied into a strand of RNA is called what?

Back

transcription

Front

What is the role of RNA in protein synthesis?

Back

RNA serves as a template for assembling amino acids into proteins.

Front

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

Back

mRNA (messenger RNA), tRNA (transfer RNA), rRNA (ribosomal RNA).

Front

What is the function of mRNA?

Back

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

Front

What is the function of tRNA?

Back

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

Front

What is the function of rRNA?

Back

rRNA is a structural component of ribosomes, facilitating the translation of mRNA into proteins.
