A
UAG, UGA, UAA
6
Q
Positive transcription factor vs negative transcription factor
A
positive- promotes gene expression negative- represses gene expression
7
Q
mRNA vs tRNA vs rRNA
A
mRNA carries coding sequence for protien synthesis
tRNA Carries amino acids to the ribosomes during protien synthesis rRNA froms the core of a cells ribosomes
