do ribosomes translate DNA into RNA into proteins?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes they do

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This is one of the fundamental concepts of molecular biology All visible phenotypes (and those you don't see too!) are the result of the actions of enzymes, which are protein catalysts that regulate all body functions Any alteration of this process may affect the formation of proteins, hence the expression of the phenotype Transcription - the synthesis of RNA under the direction of DNA Translation - the actual synthesis of a protein, which occurs under the direction of mRNA

I agree with ilikephysics2. And s/he (sorry!) made a good point: "Transcription" goes from DNA to RNA And "translation," the one that you're talking about, is where the ribosomes decode the RNA and create amino acid chains, which make proteins. Yes.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes. He ribosomes translate the information the RNA is carrying in order to make amino acids
