What is DNA?

Back

DNA (Deoxyribonucleic Acid) is the molecule that carries the genetic instructions for life.

Front

What is the role of mRNA in protein synthesis?

Back

mRNA (messenger RNA) carries the genetic information from DNA to the ribosome for protein synthesis.

Front

What is the function of tRNA?

Back

tRNA (transfer RNA) brings amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis.

Front

What is the role of ribosomes in protein synthesis?

Back

Ribosomes are the cellular structures where protein synthesis occurs.

Front

What is transcription?

Back

Transcription is the process of copying a segment of DNA into RNA.
