2. Transcription
• In Transcription, RNA Polymerase
unwinds a small portion of the DNA.
Then, mRNA matches the bases of
the DNA. The mRNA breaks away
from the DNA and passes through
the nuclear pores to get to the
ribosomes.
20. Translation
• In Translation, the mRNA comes in
contact with the ribosome. The
ribosome will then read the mRNA and
translate it. Then, tRNA anticodons
are created for each codon. Each
anticodon codes for a specific amino
acid. The tRNA finds the correct amino
acid and all the amino acids are strung
together to form a protein.
