Study Notes
RNA and Protein Synthesis
- Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) is responsible for making ribosomes in the endoplasmic reticulum of the cytoplasm.
- Messenger RNA (mRNA) plays a crucial role in protein synthesis by carrying genetic information from DNA to the ribosome, where it is translated into a specific sequence of amino acids.
Cell Division
- Cells divide to grow, repair, and reproduce tissues, as well as to maintain tissue homeostasis.
