How do you change dna to rna to amino acids

This can be done through the Transcription and Translation process.

Long story short: DNA -> messenger RNA (mRNA) -> amino acids -> polypeptide chain -> protein

Step 1: Transcription
1) DNA loop is open
2) RNA polymerase (enzyme in nucleus) catalyze reaction of “unzipping” DNA
3) free RNA nucleotides in nucleus will be added to that strand of DNA
4) messenger RNA moves across nuclear membrane to cytoplasm (our nucleus)

Step 2: Translation
1) messenger RNA attaches to ribosome
2) mRNA determines which amino acid to place on protein
3) uses codons (triplet) on mRNA. Codon on mRNA and anticodon on tRNA have to match, which places true amino acid in ribosome, then it detached and finds another amino acid in cytoplasm.
4) “AUG” starts translation, and keeps going until reaching “stop codon”.
5) completed polypeptide chain results to protein being synthesized

Your teacher should explain this process more in depth hopefully
