The double helix is split then transcribed into RNA... This RNA is then translated 3 bases at a time by ribosomes. Each 3 base combinations codes for one of 20 amino acids... This amino acids, being polar and non polar in nature, are linked in a chain which then folds in various 3d shapes known as a protein.

How is RNA translated and where?
RNA transcribed in nucleus and transported to cytoplasm for protein synthesis. RNA normally transcribed from DNA at cell nucleus and not translated. It can translates protein if there is a message in coded, in cytoplasm.
What protein is produced when gene is activated through transcription and translation?
The protein coded for in the DNA transcribed ad then translated.
What is DNA converted into protein?
During transcription, the DNA code is transcribed by mRNA, forming a mRNA molecule that will leave the nucleus and go to a ribosome to be translated into a protein.
What is a messenger DNA?
You're thinking of messenger RNA. It is the transcribed complement of DNA that ultimately gets translated by rRNA and tRNA into a protein.
What contains the codes for the sequence of amino acids in protein?
Generally DNA. But the DNA sequence gets transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA) which the mRNA gets translated by ribosomes into a polypeptide and later into a protein.

What protein is produced when gene is activated through transcription and translation?
The protein coded for in the DNA transcribed ad then translated.
What is the central dogma of molecuar biology?
The central dogma of molecular biology essentially tells hows how proteins (which make up majority of the structure and function of the body) are made from the genetic code. The genetic code, DNA, is transcribed into RNA. RNA is then translated to protein.
What is one form of RNA that that serves as a template for protein synthesis It is transcribed from DNA and then translated at ribosomes to produce a protein?
Messenger RNA (mRNA)
How do genes control the way protein is made in a spiders body?
Genes are sections of DNA that control different traits. When the DNA is transcribed to mRNA, then translated by a ribosome, the ribosome is DIRECTLY synthesizing the protein from the mRNA. This means that the genetic code on the DNA directly corresponds to the type of protein that is being made!
When is the repressor protein transcribed?
It is always transcribed.
What is DNA converted into protein?
During transcription, the DNA code is transcribed by mRNA, forming a mRNA molecule that will leave the nucleus and go to a ribosome to be translated into a protein.
What is used to carry the genetic code from DNA to the ribosomes?
The mRNA carries the genetic code needed to make a protein to the ribosome from DNA via microtubules.
What is a messenger DNA?
You're thinking of messenger RNA. It is the transcribed complement of DNA that ultimately gets translated by rRNA and tRNA into a protein.
What contains the codes for the sequence of amino acids in protein?
Generally DNA. But the DNA sequence gets transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA) which the mRNA gets translated by ribosomes into a polypeptide and later into a protein.
What is the scientific definition of translation?
Translation is the process where the genetic information on mRNA is read made (translated) into a protein.
