The animation shows how the _______code is transcribed into __________and then translated into a
________.
Starting in the _______, we see how the DNA code is converted to messenger RNA by the process of
___________. We then follow the messenger RNA into the cytoplasm where it is bound by protein
factories, called _________. The ribosomes read the messenger RNA to produce a chain of ____________.
Each amino acid is delivered to the ribosome by a ______________ molecule depending on the code in the
messenger RNA. These amino acids are added in sequence to form a chain of amino acids. After the last
amino acid is added to the chain, it folds up to form the final protein.
