Essential Question: How cells make
proteins?
Investigation Question: How do regions of
DNA called genes determine the structure of
proteins?
Investigation 2 Claim:
Regions of DNA called genes determine the structure of
proteins by the mRNA’s codon sequence base pairing
with the anticodon on the tRNA. The anticodon sequence
will correspond with a specific amino acid to assemble a
specific protein.
Terms of Use:
Gene, Codon, Anticodon, mRNA, tRNA, protein, amino
acids

How do regions of DNA called genes
determine the structure of proteins?
Evidence 3.1
Justification
• How does the evidence
justify the claim that the
mRNA’s codon sequence
base pairing with the
anticodon on the tRNA?
• Terms: mRNA, codon,
anticodon, tRNA
How do regions of DNA called genes
determine the structure of proteins?
Evidence 3.2
Justification
How does the evidence
justifies the claim that a
specific gene will have an
anticodon sequence that
will correspond with a
specific amino acid to
assemble a specific
protein?
Terms: gene, anticodon,
amino acid, protein
How do regions of DNA called genes
determine the structure of proteins?
Evidence 3.2
Justification
How does the evidence
justify the claim that a
specific gene codes
for a particular
protein?
Terms: Gene, Codon,
Anticodon, mRNA, tRNA,
protein, amino acids
