7 of 16
where do mRNA and tRNA meet?
in the ribosome
8 of 16

Peptidyl transferase
11 of 16
what are the pyramidine bases?
Thymine, Cytosine, Uracil
12 of 16
what are the three types of RNA
mRNA, tRNA, rRNA
13 of 16
whats transcription?
when the DNA double helix splits the free RNA nucleotides in the cytoplasm bind to the DNA bases to form an mRNA strand which will then be edited and can be sent out the nucleus
14 of 16
where do you find the anticodon?
tRNA
15 of 16
what is the role of tRNA
the anticodon it has matches a triplet code of the mRNA and has a specific amino acid attached, it bonds all the amino acids together through peptide bonds to form a primary structure of protein
