Explore Learning Gizmo: RNA and Protein Synthesis. Graded A+

Document Content and Description Below

Suppose you want to design and build a house. How would you communicate your design plans with the construction crew that would work on the house? - By creating a blueprint. Cells build large, compl... icated molecules, such as proteins. What do you think cells uses their "design plans'' for proteins? - DNA DNA is composed of the bases adenine (A) cytosine (C), guanine (G), and thymine (T). RNA is composed of adenine, cytosine, guanine, and uracil (U). Is the displayed segment a part of DNA or RNA molecule? How do you know? - DNA because it has the base A-T and G-C RNA polymerase is a type of enzyme. Enzymes help[ chemical reactions occur quickly. Click release and describe what happens. - It splits the DNA In molecules of RNA, uracil takes the place of the DNA base... - Thymine What is the nucleotide sequence of the mRNA strand you built? - It goes into 7 strands [Show More]
