DNA in our body contains genetic information that is used for the development of other cells like RNA molecules and proteins. The nitrogenous bases on the DNA code for and correspond to amino acids. DNA replicates itself during replication, which occurs in the nucleus of the cell during cell division. The next step for protein production is transcription in which parts of DNA are transcribed into RNA with the help of the enzyme RNA synthase. The final step occurs outside of the nucleus in which the single strand of RNA moves through the cell cytoplasm and reaches the ribosome. The ribosome reads the sequence of nitrogenous bases and produces amino acids. Each amino acid is produced individually and then are attached to each other through dehydration synthesis until they form an adequate polypeptide chain. The polypeptide chain then goes on to affect the phenotype of the individual and the process from DNA to phenotype is completed.

  • so childish

  • sorry but this shouldnt have a 5star rating.

  • Did you write the music and sound effects yourself? They have to be cited in the film if not.

    Replication is part of cell division. Doesn't have to do with RNA production (transcription) or amino acid production (translation).

    The amino acids that are not kept separate. They are produced at the end of translation are polymerized via dehydration synthesis reactions into a polypeptide strand...(and then move along to add to proteins that are out there in the cell).
