1
Q
where are proteins synthesised?
A
in the ribosomes
2
Q

in the nucleas
3
Q
how is genetic information in a gene carried from the nucleas to the ribosomes?
A
it is carried by the MRNA
4
Q
what does the MRNa carry?
A
a copy of the genetic code from the dna
5
Q
what is the second step of mrna process?
A
the mrna carries the copy of the dna from the nucleas to the ribosomes
6
Q

A
proteins are assembled into amino acids
7
