What is DNA? DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is the molecule that
carries the genetic instructions for life, composed
of two strands forming a double helix.


What is mRNA? mRNA (messenger RNA) is a type of RNA that
conveys genetic information from DNA to the
ribosome, where proteins are synthesized.

, How is mRNA made? mRNA is synthesized through a process called
transcription, where RNA polymerase reads the
DNA template and creates a complementary RNA
strand.


Where is mRNA made? mRNA is made in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells.


What is the process called that The process of synthesizing proteins from mRNA
synthesizes proteins? is called translation.


Where is protein made? Proteins are made in the ribosomes, which can be
found in the cytoplasm or on the rough
endoplasmic reticulum.


What is the complementary mRNA The complementary mRNA sequence to ATC on
sequence to ATC on DNA? DNA is UAG.


Why is messenger RNA important? Messenger RNA is important because it serves as
the template for protein synthesis, carrying the
genetic code from DNA to the ribosomes.
