b. structure
c. acting, materials
d. protecting
The most common example of protein involved is your ____ color, that involved in ___________ ________________
eye, pigment production
Protein Synthesis is ________ _____________
making proteins
2 steps in Protein Synthesis
Transcription
Translation
What are the two steps in Protein Synthesis with their roles
Transcription: makes mRNA within the nucleus
Translation: create a chain of amino acid (monomer of protein) known as a polypeptide, occur in ribosomes
mRNA occur in ______
rRNA occur in _______
tRNA occur in _______
nucleus, ribosomes, ribosomes
What are the roles of each type of RNA?
Messenger RNA (mRNA): a messenger, bring genetic information/DNA from nucleus to the ribosomes.
Transfer RNA (tRNA): an adapters, bring the right amino acids to the ribosomes
Ribosomal RNA (rRNA): KEY COMPONONENT of ribosomes, responsible for protein Synthesis, play a big role in chemical reection during protein synthesis
