Amoeba Sisters: Protein Synthesis
Explore the steps of transcription and translation in protein synthesis! This video explains several reasons why proteins are so important before explaining the roles of mRNA, rRNA, and tRNA in the steps of protein synthesis!
Amoeba Sisters: How to Read a Codon Chart
So you've seen our DNA vs RNA and Protein Synthesis videos, but now you may be wondering how to use those codon charts to determine the amino acids of a protein? You've come to the right video! Join the Amoeba Sisters as they show how to work through a rectangular and circular codon chart
Amoeba Sisters: Mutations
Join the Amoeba Sisters as they explain gene and chromosome mutations, and explore the significance of these changes. This updated video has improved audio and images!
Growth in an organism is carefully controlled by regulating the cell cycle. In plants, the roots continue to grow as they search for water and nutrients. These regions of growth are good for studying the cell cycle because at any given time, you can find cells that are undergoing mitosis.
