DNA Protein Synthesis-Transcription and Translation

Transcription:  1. How is mRNA different than DNA? mRNA has one strand whereas DNA is double stranded, meaning that there are two sides which join together. mRNA’s job is different to DNA’s because it is supposed to copy the info of the DNA strand. After that, the mRNA moves to the cytoplasm to help build protein. Also, DNA uses the base thymine whereas mRNA has the base uracil. Finally, DNA…

Diffusion in Agar Cubes

1. In terms of maximizing diffusion, what was the most effective size cube that you tested? The cube which was the most effective in diffusion was the smallest cube. Nearly the entire volume of the cube turned pink from the diffusion. 2. Why was that size most effective at maximizing diffusion? What are the important factors that affect how materials diffuse into cells or tissues? It was the most effective…
