Explain the roles of mRNA and tRNA in protein synthesis.
mRNA is transcribed from DNA and carries the genetic code from the nucleus to the ribosome. The sequence of nucleotides in the mRNA identifies which amino acids should be linked together. tRNA then translates the mRNA sequence by carrying the corresponding amino acids to the ribosome to build the protein.
