What is the difference between epinepherin and norepinepherin?
Epinephrine and norepinephrine are two very structurally similar molecules. They've both involved in the sympathetic part of your autonomic nervous system. Epinephrine (also known as adrenaline) is a hormone which is secreted from the adrenal medulla when activated by the sympathetic nervous system (during times of stress). Norepinephrine (also known as noradrenaline) is a neurotransmitter that is released by neurons in the sympathetic nervous system. Epinephrine and norepinephrine generally produce the same effects as they both interact with adrenergic receptors in the body. Epinephrine is structurally different from norepinephrine as epinephrine has a methyl group (-CH3) attached to the nitrogen atom (making it a secondary amine), whereas norepinephrine is just a primary amine.

Why is it necessary for DNA to make a messenger?
There are a few reasons. Primarily DNA is found in the nucleus, whereas the translation process is carried out by ribosomes in the cytoplasm. Therefore it is necessary to have some kind of messenger that allows for the DNA code to be translated into proteins. This messenger is known as messenger RNA (mRNA).
