TranscriptionTranscription
The DNA code is first The DNA code is first transferred into transferred into mRNAmRNA–mRNA is the first copy mRNA is the first copy made of the moldmade of the mold
mRNA carries the mRNA carries the information out of the information out of the nucleus and into the nucleus and into the cytoplasm.cytoplasm.
mRNA attaches to the mRNA attaches to the ribosomesribosomes
tRNA collect amino tRNA collect amino acids and carry them acids and carry them to the mRNAto the mRNA
TranslationTranslation
The anticodons of tRNA The anticodons of tRNA attach to the attach to the appropriate codons of appropriate codons of mRNA.mRNA.
The amino acids are The amino acids are forming new specific forming new specific proteinsproteins
The new proteins are The new proteins are now organized to now organized to provide new strands provide new strands of DNAof DNA
