DNA=double helix or double strand and RNA= Single strand
12.
mRNA= carries genetic information from nucleus to the site of protein
synthesis (ribosome)
tRNA= transfers the amino acids to the site of protein synthesis (ribosome)
RNA= Connects the mRNA to the tRNA

1. mRNA genetic information brought from nucleus to the ribosome 2. tRNA
amnio acids to the ribosomes

Transcription constructs RNA from DNA 1. Double stranded DNA serves as a
genetic blueprint 2. Transcription creates a messenger RNA copy of a gene in the
DNA 3. Messenger RNA travels to ribosomes 4. Transfer RNA carries amino acids to
the ribosomes 5. Proteins are produced by the ribosome in translation.

Why is the sequence of bases in a segment of DNA important to the cell?
The sequence of bases determines the sequence of amino acids in the protein
