You are explaining protein synthesis to your grandmother, using her old heirloom cookbook as an analogy. "Imagine this cookbook is the DNA in each of your cells," you say. If you copy down one recipe on a scrap of paper and take it to the kitchen to make gingerbread cookies, this would be like what in the cell
paper is mRNA, kitchen is the ribosome, cookies are the protein
paper is tRNA, kitchen is mRNA, cookies are the ribosome
paper is the nucleus, kitchen is ribosome, cookies are tRNA
paper is ribosome, kitchen is mRNA, cookies are delicious.
