Front

What is the molecule that helps in the synthesis of proteins by carrying the code from DNA?

Back

RNA

Front

Which organelles are involved in the process of translation?

Back

Ribosomes and rough endoplasmic reticulum

Front

What type of bond links amino acids together in a protein?

Back

Peptide bonds

Front

What is the process called where RNA is synthesized from a DNA template?

Back

Transcription

Front

What are the building blocks of proteins?

Back

Amino acids

Front

What is the role of ribosomes in protein synthesis?

Back

Ribosomes translate mRNA into proteins.

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 messenger RNA (mRNA)?

Back

mRNA carries the genetic code from DNA to the ribosomes for protein synthesis.
