Question

  1. in a eukaryotic cell, which main organelle is involved in translation?
  2. explain the relationship between dna sequence, amino acid sequence, and protein structure and function.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Translation is the process of synthesizing proteins from mRNA. Ribosomes are the main organelles involved in this process. They read the mRNA sequence and assemble amino acids into a polypeptide chain.

The DNA sequence contains the genetic information. Through transcription, it is converted into mRNA. The mRNA sequence is then translated into an amino acid sequence by ribosomes. The amino acid sequence determines the protein's primary structure, which in turn influences its three - dimensional structure and function.

Answer:

  1. Ribosome
  2. The DNA sequence is transcribed into mRNA. The mRNA sequence is translated into an amino acid sequence by ribosomes. The amino acid sequence determines the protein's structure (primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary) and thus its function.
