Protein Synthesis

What happens during transcription?

• DNA is made into amino acids
• DNA is made into mRNA
• DNA is made into a protein

Where does transcription take place?

• Nucleus
• Ribosome
• tRNA

What enzyme is responsible for making mRNA from DNA?

• DNA polymerase
• RNA ligase
• RNA polymerase

Why doesn't DNA leave the nucleus?

• It could get damaged
• It could get locked out of the nucleus
• It doesn't want RNA to feel left out

What happens during translation?

• mRNA matches up with tRNA to form a protein
• tRNA matches up with DNA to make a protein
• DNA is copied into mRNA

Where does translation take place?

• Nucleus
• Ribosome
• Mitochondria

What are proteins made of?

• DNA
• RNA
