DNA - the molecule that carries genetic information for the development and functioning of an organism, mRNA - a type of single-stranded RNA involved in protein synthesis, tRNA - serves as a link (or adaptor) between the messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule and the growing chain of amino acids that make up a protein., rRNA - responsible for reading the order of amino acids and linking amino acids together, Ribosome - a micro-machine for making proteins., RNA Polymerase - an enzyme that is responsible for copying a DNA sequence into an RNA sequence, duyring the process of transcription., Transcription - the process by which the information in a strand of DNA is copied into a new molecule of messenger RNA (mRNA)., Translation - process of translating the sequence of a messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule to a sequence of amino acids during protein synthesis., Amino Acids - molecules that combine to form proteins, Nucleic Acids - the storage and expression of genomic information., Spliceosome - the molecular machinery responsible for removing introns from pre-mRNA to create a translatable molecule, introns - noncoding sections of an RNA transcript, or the DNA encoding it, that are spliced out before the RNA molecule is translated into a protein., exons - The sections of DNA (or RNA) that code for proteins,
