contains the specific recipe for the making of a specific protein? _____________________
3. The top arrow in the box represents which protein synthesis process? ____________________ 4. The recipe card with a recopied recipe represents which protein synthesis molecule? _____________ 5. The raw materials or building blocks of protein synthesis are _______________________________ (Flour, etc. in the diagram.) 6.
