What do these Chinese

symbols say?

Transcribe to English alphabet:

 1.Transcription the mRNA molecule reads part of the
DNA code and makes a copy.
mRNA takes an order from the DNA.
Takes place in the nucleus.
 RNA Polymerase is an enzyme that is responsible
for copying a DNA sequence into an RNA sequence

The language of DNA instructions is called
the genetic code.
The genetic code is read three letters at a
time (triplet) , so that each word of the
coded message is three bases long.
Codon - Three-nucleotide sequence on
messenger RNA that codes for a single
amino acid.
DNA: T A C C G C T G A

mRNA: A U G G C G A C U

DNA: A C C C A G A C A

mRNA: U A G G U C U G U
mRNA leaves the
nucleus and
travels to the
ribosomes in the
cytoplasm.
