CHNOPS
Simulating Protein Synthesis
A CHNOP is a fictitious organism that only has one chromosome. On this chromosomes are 8 different
genes. Each box represents one gene. All the boxes represent one chromosome. For each gene
transcribe the DNA into mRNA. Then translate the mRNA into a protein. For this activity each protein
is being represented by a numeric sequence. Certain sequences tell you what trait to give your
CHNOP (example—one box (gene) makes a protein that controls skin color) USE p. 338 in Textbook.

1. Draw your creature below.
2. Explain the difference between translation and transcription.
3. Where does transcription occur?
4. Where does translation occur?
5. What does a single codon code for?
6. How many codons does this gene sequence (TATGCGATGATA) have?
7. How many amino acids will be produced from this gene?
8. What would happen to the amino acid sequence if you changed the order of the
nitrogen bases in DNA?
