Answer

it helps in DNA replication process

Answer

make sugar which is very important component of the DNA

Question 3

What is the function of a t-RNA?

Accepted Answer

carry appropriate amino acids to the mRNA strand

Answer

Accepted Answer

Amino acid sequence is key to proper protein function

Answer

Amino acid create phosphate

Answer

Amino acid helps to breaks DNA strands apart
