1. Players in the protein game

2. Amino Acids

3. Codons Each condon has 3 bases and they pair with their match

4. Chromosomes Are tightly wound coils of DNA. Chromosomes can be seen in a light microscope but in order to see the DNA you have to have a high powered mircroscope

5. Cytoplasm

6. DNA All dna does is make protein

7. Genes Each gene codes for one protein

8. MRNA Makes a copy of the dna is a single strand

9. Nucleus Is where all DNA is found

10. Proteins We contain more than 2,000,000 different proteins. They are built inside cells using Dna code however it folds that’s the what it does.

11. Ribosomes Ribosomes translate the mRNA, written in the language of genes, into amino acids, the language of proteins. They also match nucleic acids with their partner

12. RNA polymers and tRNA Enzyme on one end of a trna it has 3 nitrogenous bases and on the other end it has the amino acid. We have 20 amino acids. anticodon
