THE PROTEIN SYNTHESIS ESSAY MUST:

be in the FHS Essay Format
CD - Concrete Details (Facts)
example - Protein Synthesis occurs in the cell.
CM - Commentary (Opinion or your experience)
example - It was interesting to use "toys" to demonstrate how protein synthesis occurs to
Ms. Antoine.

be 2-4 pages in length
Typed
Double Spaced
12 point font size

The words must be defined within the context of the essay. This DOES NOT mean that
you should have a formal list of definitions. On the contrary, the definitions should
appear as a natural adjunct in your explanation of the process of protein synthesis.

Paraphrase in your own words, what you did in step 1 through step 12 of the Chimera Project
packet.
Next, find the steps that occur in the cell (in the packet, a textbook or on the internet) that match
what you did in the steps.
If there are any differences, (there are many!) explain what they are.
