Protein Synthesis DNA Replication • Happens only in the nucleus • DNA nucleotides only • Only happens prior to mitosis • Involves DNA • Needed for cell reproduction • A copy of the DNA is made • Happens in nucleus and cytoplasm • Involves RNA and DNA Nucleotides • Happens throughout the cells life
Translation Transcription • DNA is involved • Happens in the nucleus • Thymine is involved • Part of Protein Synthesis • mRNA is involved • Uracil is involved • Amino Acids are involved • tRNA is involved • Happens in the cytoplasm
