24. Final Protein

25. Summary
RNA Polymerase unwinds DNA and synthesizes a
strand of mRNA. The mRNA leaves the nucleus
and goes to a Ribosome. The Ribosome then
brings tRNA molecules with amino acids to read
the mRNA. The amino acids break off of the
tRNA and make a chain of amino acids that fold
upon its self and make a protein.
