Front

What is the function of ribosomes in cells?

Back

Ribosomes are the sites of protein synthesis.

Front

What is the process of transcription?

Back

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

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.
