Central dogma of molecular biology
Ans: describes the flow of information from DNA -RNA-Protein;
once information is in a protein it cant get out
two processes involved in the flow of genetic information
Ans: transcription and translation
describe how information in DNA is used to produce specific proteins
and can ultimately determine characteristics of an individual organism
Ans: information in DNA is transcribed into mRNA and mRNA
is translated into proteins
