The process of converting the "message" of mrna into a sequence of amino acids is called:
1 answer:
This process is known as translation
The process begins with messenger RNA (mRNA) giving instructions to amino acids. These instructions are sent with the help of transfer RNA (tRNA).
The amino acids form a chain called a polypeptide (proteins are made up of one or more polypeptide chains)
I have attached an image that will help your understanding of translation
I hope this helps! I'm happy to help with any other questions you might have :)
