Question

prediction: rna determines the sequence of amino acids in proteins and polypeptides by a two - step process: transcription of dna produces mrna in the nucleus, then translation of the mrna to trna takes place in the ribosome in the cytoplasm. the words underlined above are the key processes of the exploration. complete the following sentences. transcription produces mrna. translation takes place in the ribosome. use the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 to place the protein creation steps below in the correct order. ribosome attaches to the mrna. information is transcribed in dna to mrna. trna anticodon carries an amino acid that compliments the mrna codon. mrna leaves the nucleus. the chain of amino acids forms a protein.

Explanation:

Step1: First step is transcription

Information is transcribed in DNA to mRNA. So this step is 1.

Step2: mRNA moves out

mRNA leaves the nucleus. So this step is 2.

Step3: Ribosome attachment

Ribosome attaches to the mRNA. So this step is 3.

Step4: t - RNA function

tRNA anticodon carries an amino acid that compliments the mRNA codon. This is already marked as 4.

Step5: Protein formation

The chain of amino acids forms a protein. This is already marked as 5.

Answer:

1. Information is transcribed in DNA to mRNA.
2. mRNA leaves the nucleus.
3. Ribosome attaches to the mRNA.
4. tRNA anticodon carries an amino acid that compliments the mRNA codon.
5. The chain of amino acids forms a protein.
