Course: Biotechnology Foundations in Technology Education (21999) > Section: Exploring Biochemistry

Explanation should

- state that a protein is a substance consisting of amino acids, which are important in the nutrition and growth of an organism
- include the fact that the use of proteins is essential in the maturation rate of organisms
- include the fact that the process of making a protein involves DNA (gene) to RNA to protein.

Process/Skill Questions:
