DNA
mRNA

base pairing

and i have to write an essay

Answer 1

The basic things you need to know are that DNA is the template for transcription. Transcription is the process which makes mRNA (messenger RNA) from the DNA template. The mRNA specifies the amino acids which make up the protein - each amino acid is coded by a three letter code (codon) in the mRNA. The amino acids get polymerised together at the ribosome after being brought to the ribosome by tRNAs (transferRNAs). Each tRNA has an anticodon which binds to the mRNA - this gives the specificity.

I would also suggest you have a look at this page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_dogma
