23 of 28
What is it used in?
Translation which binds to the chromosome
24 of 28
What does tRNA?
This translates the code on the DNA
25 of 28
What does it do?
Attaches to amino acid, tRNA binds mRNA and tRNA binds amino acids together
26 of 28

Carbohydrates providing a source of energy
27 of 28
Why else does it lead to obesisty?
If the energy input is greater than the energy output weight will be gained
