Review
1) Define transcription?
Translation?
2) What are genes and how are they different from chromosomes?
3) How many nucleotides make a codon?
4) The anticodon can be found on which object?
5) The anticodon must match the _________________.
6) Place the following steps in order from start to finish:
a. Proteins are assembled
b. Ribosome reads a codon one at a time
c. mRNA arrives at the ribosome
d. tRNA delivers amino acids to the ribosome
7) Be able to solve practice problems similar to the three examples on slides #8‐11.
Amino Acid
