What is the main function of tRNA?

Back

The main function of tRNA is to bring amino acids from the cytoplasm to the ribosomes.

Front

Back

The complementary RNA sequence is CAUCAGU.

Front

Where does transcription occur in the cell?

Back

Transcription occurs in the nucleus.

Front

Where does translation occur in the cell?

Back

Translation occurs at the ribosome in the cytoplasm.

Front

What does DNA hold the code for?

Back

DNA holds the code for proteins.

Front

What are the building blocks of proteins?

Back

The building blocks of proteins are amino acids.

Front

What is the process of creating mRNA from DNA called?

Back

The process of creating mRNA from DNA is called transcription.

Front

What is the role of ribosomes in protein synthesis?

Back

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

Front

What is the difference between DNA and RNA?

Back

DNA is double-stranded and contains thymine, while RNA is single-stranded and contains uracil.

Front

What is the function of mRNA?

Back

The function of mRNA is to carry the genetic information from DNA to the ribosomes for protein synthesis.
