Chapter 26, Problem 26.51AP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The DNA, tRNA, and mRNA has to be ranked in order of size.
Concept Introduction:
DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid): A long stranded chain that stores genetic information.
mRNA: Messenger RNA carries the genetic message from DNA to ribosomes.
tRNA: Transfer RNA transports specific amino acids to ribosomes, where they are incorporated into proteins.
