Question

N the early 1900's a scientist hypothesized a link between DNA and the production of proteins in the cytoplasm. However, the fact that DNA could not be found outside the nucleus led scientists to belive that another substance was also involved in the synthesis of protein in the cytoplasm. In the 1940s scientists performed an experiement that ultimately identified the site of protein synthesis. They also identified the molecule respnsible for transporting information from the nucleus to the site of protein synthesis. What was this newly identified molecule?
Your answer:


How does the cytoplasm synthesize protein?

How does DNA replicate in the cytoplasm to make genes?

What molecule transports information from the nucleus to the cytoplasm to make protein?

How does thymine work?

Answer 1

The newly identified molecule was RNA.

The cytoplasm synthesize protein through the ribosomes.

The molecule that transports information from the nucleus to the cytoplasm is the tRNA or the transfer RNA.

Thymine is a DNA base which is one of the building blocks in making protein.
