45. Transcription Description
Transcription is the making of a gene sequence.
The mRNA molecule leaves the cell nucleus and
enters the cytoplasm. In the cytoplasm the
mRNA strand is synthesized and it is encoded.
The base pairing is adenine with thymine and
cytosine with guanine. The mRNA strand leaves
the nucleus and goes into a ribosome.

46. Translation Description
In translation a ribosome attaches onto the
mRNA strand. During this process the tRNA
Molecule comes in with the anti-codon and
places it on the codons in a specific sequence.
But unlike transcription where A goes to T and C
goes to G, but in translation A goes to U and C
goes to G still the same. As the process goes on
the anti-codons form amino acids and
polypeptide bonds. The amino acids are then
formed into a protein.
