why are DNA and RNA important for cells?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

DNA carries the genetic information of a cell. WHen this information is needed, the genes are transferred to RNA

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you , but what are they involved in

OpenStudy (anonymous):

RNA molecules are involved in protein synthesis and DNA is invovled with strand synthesis. Does that help @ashley321

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah thank you :]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

DNA holds the instructions for creating functional products (proteins) - which control many of the functions of the cell. RNA is used in several ways in the production of protein. mRNA carries a copy of the DNA code to the ribosomes (which contain rRNA), where protein synthesis occurs. tRNA is responsible for carrying amino acids (the building blocks of proteins) to the ribosome.
