Definition
1. a piece of DNA was intorduced into the nucleus of the cell
2. DNA was transcribed into single-stranded RNA which matched with complementary RNA and necame double-stranded RNA
3. the double stranded RNA was recognized by the proteins (cops)
4. RISC (the cop) caused the mRNA for purple pigment to be destoryed
5. there were no purple pigment mRNAs for the ribosomes to translate so the flower cells remained white |
