Question

Directions: Drag each tile to the correct box. Not all tiles will be used.Fibronectin is a protein produced by cells in the liver. One function of fibronectin is forming blood clots to heal wounds.Order the steps that take place in the synthesis of fibronectin.A. Fibronectin is produced.B. Bonds are formed between the amino acids.C. Amino acids bond to the DNA.D. DNA is transcribed to produce mRNA.E. Amino acids line up in order.

Answer 1

Fibronectin is a protein, and all proteins share some of the steps to their formation.

First, the DNA needs to be transcribed to produce mRNA, then the mRNA is translated in the ribosomes, where the amino acids line up in order and form a chain, and this chain is what we call a protein.

Given the options on this question, the correct would be:

D. DNA is transcribed.

E. Amino acids line up

B. Bonds are formed between the amino acids

A. Fibronectin is produced.
