Proteins are made of smaller units called amino acids. The bases on DNA are a code for a specific amino acid. The mRNA will come over and read the DNA strand. Then it will go to the ribosome where rRNA will match up with complementary base pairs to the mRNA. The rRNA brought over holds the protein the DNA coded for. Then, the long strand of amino acids is brought over to this jar like structure where it is folded into a protein.
