6. (mRNA/rRNA) is used to carry the genetic code from DNA to the ribosomes.

7. (tRNA/rRNA) makes up the ribosome.

8. (DNA/RNA) uses uracil instead of thymine.

11. Transcription takes place in the (nucleus/cytoplasm).

12. tRNA is used in (translation/transcription).

13. tRNA uses (anticodons/codons) to match to the mRNA.

14. Proteins are made at the (nucleus/ribosome).

15. (tRNA/mRNA) brings amino acids to the ribosome.

16. tRNA is found in the (nucleus/cytoplasm).

17. (Translation/Transcription) converts mRNA into a protein.

18. Translation takes place in the (cytoplasm/nucleus).

19. (DNA/RNA) can leave the nucleus.

20. (Translation/Transcription) converts DNA into mRNA.
