Question

homework - protein synthesis
a student uses the statements below to design a model of the production of proteins in a cell. drag each step into its correct position to model the sequence of the steps of protein synthesis
amino acids form polypeptide chain
mrna is transcribed from dna
ribosome translates mrna
mrna leaves nucleus

Explanation:

Protein synthesis involves two main steps: transcription and translation. Transcription occurs first in the nucleus where mRNA is made from DNA. Then the mRNA leaves the nucleus. After that, translation happens at the ribosome where the ribosome reads (translates) the mRNA code and amino acids are joined to form a polypeptide chain.

Answer:

1. mRNA is transcribed from DNA
2. mRNA leaves nucleus
3. Ribosome translates mRNA
4. Amino acids form polypeptide chain
