Protein Synthesis

Master protein synthesis with our DNA, RNA, and gene expression worksheet!

DNA vs RNA Label each vocabulary word as describing DNA or RNA. DNA double helix A, G, C, T contains deoxyribose sugar found in nucleus of eukaryotic cells Deoxyribonucleic acid RNA single helix A, G, C, U contains ribose sugar found in nucleus and cytoplasm Ribonucleic Acid DNA Transcription DNACGT - ATA - CAG - CTAmRNAGCA - UAU - GUC - GAU Types of RNA Correctly match the picture and definition for each type of RNA. RNA Definition Picture mRNA Carries the copy of DNA's code tRNA Brings the amino acid rRNA Makes sure protein is made correctly. Transcription vs Translation Correctly separate the major differences between the two major processes in Protein Synthesis. Transcription Happens in the Nucleus Makes RNA 1st part Translation Happens in the Cytoplasm Makes Protein 2nd part Transcription and Translation Model Complete of the missing blanks with this unit's vocabulary wordsDNA mRNA tRNA RibosomeTranscription Translation ProteinNucleus Cytoplasm Amino Acid DNA mRNA Nucleus Cytoplasm tRNA Amino Acid Protein Ribosome Transcription Translation Protein Synthesis Complete each section using the codon chart DNA CGA TAC ATA GGG GAT ATG ATC AAA RNA GCU AUG UAU CCC CUA UAC UAG UUU Protein x Methionine Tyrosine Proline Leucine Tyrosine Stop x
