Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The reason should be determined for knowing protein synthesis as translation.
Concept introduction:
Protein synthesis (translation) is a process of generating new protein sequences inside the cell. This process takes place in the cytoplasm of the cell. This process is balanced by the degradation or export of cellular proteins. It is constituted of three steps, initiation, elongation, and termination.
Answer to Problem 1P
Protein synthesis is termed as translation because translation means conversion from one language to another language.
Explanation of Solution
During protein synthesis,
Protein synthesis is termed as translation because translation means conversion from one language to another language.
