Question
formulate a prediction
write a prediction that answers the lab question,
\how are proteins built using the information
provided by a molecule of rna?\ remember, you
are describing processes, so your prediction
should include steps.

To predict how proteins are built using RNA information, we consider the processes of transcription and translation. Transcription copies DNA into mRNA. Then, in translation, mRNA is decoded at ribosomes. tRNA brings amino acids based on mRNA codons. Amino acids bond to form a polypeptide chain, which folds into a protein.

Proteins are built using RNA information through transcription and translation. First, mRNA is transcribed from DNA. Then, at ribosomes, mRNA is translated. tRNA with complementary anticodons brings amino acids. Amino acids bond (peptide bonds) as mRNA moves through the ribosome. This forms a polypeptide chain that folds into a functional protein.
