Protein Synthesis Comic Strip!
Create a comic strip to illustrate and explain protein synthesis. Explain what happens during
transcription, RNA splicing, and translation (Explanations are worth 3 points each). The comic
strip should begin with a sequence of DNA and end with a protein, illustrating and explaining the
steps in between. Make sure the bases from DNA to RNA pair correctly! Include at least 2
specific codons and their appropriate amino acids.
Label the following: DNA, RNA, nucleus, ribosome, RNA polymerase, exon, intron, codon,
anticodon, tRNA, mRNA, amino acid, polypeptide, protein (Worth one point each).
Appearance (legible text, no grammatical/spelling errors, colored illustrations) counts for 2
points.
The total assignment is out of 25 points and counts as a quiz grade.
You may work alone or in groups of up to three students. Use your notes and textbook to help
you!
