=Study Guide= 14. What is the purpose of Protein Synthesis?

The purpose of Protein Synthesis is to make the proteins your body needs, such as keratin that makes up hair and hemoglobin that makes up red blood cells.

15. What kinds of structures are produced from this process?

The sequencing of DNA base triplets is transcribed into RNA codons, which are translated into a sequence of amino acids that form a polypeptide and proteins.

Proteins that your body needs are produced.

16. What are the two steps of this process?

1. Transcription (occurs in the nucleus) 2. Translation (occurs at the ribosome)
