Definition
Transcription is the action by which information in as strand of DNA is duplicated into a new molecule of messenger RNA.
Term
Translation
Definition
Translation is the process in which ribosomes make proteins.
Term
mRNA
Definition
mRNA(messenger RNA) job is to send info/data of how to collect amino acids found to shape protein structure in ribosomes.This proccess happens durring the protein synthesis inside the cell.
Term
Codon
Definition
Codon is a chain of three DNA or RNA nucleotides that corresponds with a particular amino acid or pauses signal during protein synthesis.
Term
Anticodon
Definition
Anticodon is a sequence of three nucleotides in tRNA or transfer RNA that binds to the codon in order to identify what amino acid is to be formed.
Term
tRNA
Definition
tRNA(transfer RNA) is a molecule that go or trransports to certain amino acids.Transer RNA is the chain process in ribosomes.
Term
Ribosome
Definition
Ribosomes are the compounds of RNA and protein molecules that can be found either floating attached to the surface of lumpy endoplasmic reticulum.
Term
Amino acid
Definition

Amino acids are molecules that have the following element a amine group, a carboxylic acid group as wellas a side chain, which is particular to each to each amino acid.

Term
3 differences between DNA and RNA
Definition

RNA molecule sugar is ribose while molecule of DNA is deoxyribose.DNA pairing is A,T and C,G which is Adenine and Thymine and Guanine and Cytosone.RNA pairing is A,U Adenine and Uracil , Guanine Cytosine.DNA is less reactive because of C-H bonds and RNA is more reactive beacause of C-OH bonds.
