Type of RNA that makes up a major part of ribosomes

RNA molecule that carries copies of instructions for the assembly of amino acids into proteins from DNA to the rest of the cell

A codon that signifies the end of a polypeptide.

Like DNA, consists of a long chain of nucleotides. However, the sugar is ribose, it is single-stranded, and it contains uracil in place of thymine.

Enzyme similar to DNA polymerase that binds to DNA and separates the DNA strands during transcription. It then uses one strand of DNA as a template from which nucleotides are assembled into a strand of RNA.

A joining of many amino acids with peptide bonds to form a long chain called a _________. Also known as a ______.

Small particle in the cell on which proteins are assembled; made of RNA and proteins

Process in which part of the nucleotide sequence of DNA is copied into a complementary sequence of RNA.

Type of RNA molecule that transfers amino acids to ribosomes during protein synthesis

The covalent bond that holds together amino acids to form a polypeptide (protein)
