Chapter 12, Problem 17RE

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Fidelity of the protein synthesis process is to be described and its comparison with replication and transcription is to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

DNA replication, RNA transcription, and protein translation are important life processes that require a high level of accuracy. Replication and transcription depend on their complementary strands, whereas the translation depends on the codons’ and anti-codons’ complementary base pairing.
