| DNA consists of Thymine, Cytosine, Guanine, and Adenine which differs from RNA because it has all with the exception of one that is substituted for this... | Uracil instead of Thymine |
| DNA has......sugar | dioxyribose |
| RNA has.....sugar | ribose |
| transcription occurs in what part of the cell? | the nucleus |
| mRNA is the......RNA | messenger |
| From the nucleus, the mRNA transcript moves into the..... | cytoplasm |
| translation occurs in the..... | cytoplasm |
| the RNA message is translated into.... | polypeptides |
