    7:51 Quick Summary Image
    Vocabulary in this video includes DNA, mRNA, rRNA, and tRNA. This video mentions that proteins can be made of 1 or more polypeptide chains and that proteins typically experience folding and other modifications (to be functional proteins.) Codons and the amino acids they code for are represented by standard charts that can be found in the public domain. While the rectangle chart is the common format, there may be other ways to represent the information. P.S. If learning about mutations, check out this cool codon chart that includes mutations(!!) in the public domain: commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fi...
    Our videos are designed to introduce basic concepts and hopefully to inspire students to stay curious about the content. We simply cannot include all of the exceptions and minute details in a video under 10 minutes, and this is why we so frequently remind people of this in our videos. We want students to go beyond our videos to explore the depth of the material.
    P.S. On our website, we emphasize that our videos contain science comics- not scientific illustrations. In real life, amoebas don't look like our characters. Our illustrated cell cartoons are definitely not to scale. Nitrogen and carbon don't tap dance. DNA is right-handed (but there are exceptions- worth a google) and doesn't have eyes...a face...or a top hat...

You can find it on our handout page www.amoebasisters.com/handouts --- just look under the topic "Protein Synthesis."

      @Justwantahover 5 років тому +58

      Cos it's made simple. It's probably right, but when you look at it with more detail, well it gets pretty detailed, and more study, and way more detail again (and it starts to become a strain on the brain). That's science.

    • @chikinonfrydai

    You sum up difficult topics like this so brilliantly, you leave out all the parts that would be too confusing for people who are just beginning! I'm curious; could you do a video on the same topics, maybe a bit more in depth, longer, for more advanced watchers? When I read a textbook it's just so dry I can't pay attention for too long and end up understanding nothing (I also tried reading the biology book you linked in the description box, again, same problem). With your wonderful illustrations I feel like I could understand this on a more academic level as well.

    Thank you so much! This helped clear things up! I have two
    questions though,
    1 - What happens to the tRNA after it contributes an amino acid? Does it just float around the cytoplasm or does it self destruct?
    2 - What happens to the mRNA after it helps make a protein?

    • @johanjoby8037
      @johanjoby8037 3 роки тому +10

      For your first question I think it picks up another amino acid that matches its complementary codon and for your second question it either is stored for later translation or breaks down
