DNA Repllcadon 0000 DNA replicntion yields two DNA molecules identcl to the original one,ensuring transmiaion Replicatlon of genetic information to daughter cells with exceptional fidelity. Transcription The sequence of bases in DNA is recorded as a sequence of complementary hases in a single- stranded mRNA molecule. mRNA ERNAS Translatioo Trandladoa Three base codons on the mRNA mRNA corresponding to specific amino acids direct the sequence of building a protein.These codons are recognized by tRNAs (transfer RNAs)carrying the appropriate amino acids.Ribosomes Attached are the "machinery"for procein amino acid 由ek Growing peptide chain
