What is transcription?
27
The order of nitrogen bases in mRNA determines
the order of amino acids, which ultimately
determines this type of organic compound.

What is A-C-A?
31
The process of converting the information in a
sequence of nitrogen bases in mRNA into a
sequence of amino acids that make up a protein.
