It was a brilliant explanation. Simple, to the point, and brief. Thank you!

[guydecervens]

Brilliant, I actually understand that.

[chintoo266]

EXCELLENT

[ConsuescoCoaegresco]

Wow. The question "why" just go even more profound.

i wish u were my chemistry teacher

[emplaysCOD]

I Love you Janice. Makes sense now

@fudge817 Still, that happens in the ribosomes. It's not like the mRNA is just loosely diffusing within the cytoplasm.

[fudge817]

@d4ark That's not what she said.She said that the tRNA bring thes amino acids to the codons in mRNA.

[d4ark]

You didn't even mention ribosomes. The mRNA doesn't just form amino acids when it comes near a tRNA...

[reimoj]

yeeeey! *low grumble* thank youuu

[sadamnixamani]

U r sho cute aunty!
