Protein Synthesis for Students

The document discusses protein synthesis, which consists of two main processes: transcription and translation. In transcription, DNA is used as a template to produce messenger RNA (mRNA). In translation, the mRNA instructions are read by the ribosome to assemble amino acids in the correct sequence to produce a polypeptide chain. The role of transfer RNA (tRNA) and ribosomal RNA (rRNA) in translation is also mentioned.
