RNA is a nucleic acid the same as DNA except: RNA Sugar is Ribose Not Deoxyribose DNA missing oxygen RNA has oxygen
RNA uses Uracil instead of Thymine No Thymine T-A Uracil pairs with Adenine: U-A A-U
RNA is a single strand RNA DNA
There are 3 types of RNA Messenger RNA (mRNA)- A copy of the DNA brought to cell Transfer RNA (tRNA) – Brings amino acids to the ribosome Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) – Forms ribosomes
Central Dogma DNA makes RNA which makes PROTEIN All life depends on this process
What is Protein? Proteins are what form all structures of the body and all life Muscles Skin Hair color Cell structures
Ribosomes Are made of rRNA and protein They read the mRNA 2 parts clamp down on mRNA Ribosomes find the proper tRNA with matching amino acid
