ribosomal RNA (or rRNA) is a part of the ribosomes usually found on the Endoplasmic Reticulum. Hope this helps!

rRNA helps build the proteins. It decodes mRNA into amino acids and provides peptide bonds for amino acids.

Ribosomal RNA, or rRNA, together with proteins called histones, makes up the ribosomes. The ribosomes are the site of the translation stage of protein synthesis, in which the genetic code on mRNA is translated into a sequence of amino acids to build a protein.

rna is a form of dna. rna is present during the duplication of dna. the rna tells what dna particals go where. the rna gets this information from the dna inside the nucleus.

helps is an amino acid that works as a complement for translation to happen.

The main function on the rRNA is to form ribosomes which will synthesis proteins. The rRNA refers to ribosomal RNA in the cells.

Ribosomal RNA or rRNA is a component of ribosomes (in addition to proteins). Ribosomes are the site of protein synthesis - so the function of rRNA is to allow protein synthesis to occur.

Where is eukaryotic ribosomal RNA transcribed?

In the nucleoli (a part of the nucleus.)


Which produced during translation ribosomal RNA transfer RNA proteins DNA?

copying part of the nucleotide sequence of DNA into a complementary sequence in RNA is called TRANSCRIPTION


Ribosomal rna brings what to ribosomes for protein synthesis?

The synthesis of proteins takes two steps: transcription and translation. Transcription takes the information encoded in DNA and encodes it into mRNA, which heads out of the cell’s nucleus and into the cytoplasm. During translation, the mRNA works with a ribosome and tRNA to synthesize proteins. RNA polymerase is necessary for the process to occur.

Steps Of Protien Synthesis?

Protein synthesis is the steps taken to create a protein. It starts in the nucleus of the cell. The double helix of DNA is ripped open in half by helicase and the free floating nucleotides for RNA come in and create messenger RNA or mRNA, for a specific section or gene of DNA. mRNA is made up of adenine, cytosine, guanine and uranine. The mRNA then travels outside of the nucleus and meets up with ribosomal RNA aka rRNA. This is more commonly known as a ribosome. The rRNA "reads" the mRNA and for every three bases on the mRNA it finds the complimentary bases on the tRNA (transfer RNA). The tRNA carries amino acids which connect into a chain as the rRNA continues reading the mRNA. When the mRNA tells the rRNA to stop reading it, the rRNA breaks off leaving a string of amino acids which then fold up into a protein.
