18
Q

Translation

A

Process of decoding RNA to make amino acids

19
Q

DNA replication

A

Makes another copy during interphase to make new cells, bonds between base pairs break and double stranded structure pulls apart, new nucleotides attach to exposed based, enzymes knit together dna molecule’s sugar phosphate backbone, new strand forms along with each of old strands making two new ones

Q

Significance of human genome project

A

Takes apart ones dna and checks to see if someone is predisposed to a certain or multiple diseases that can be contracted genetically
