Translation Modeling Activity by rforster2019
This activity was designed for standard, honors, or AP biology classes to model the process of translation. This activity picks up where Transcription leaves off. We will assume that RNA polymerase has already created the mRNA transcript and the mRNA has been processed (addition of the 5’ cap, polyA tail and removal of introns). The mRNA has moved into the cytoplasm of the cell. Translation is ready to occur. Translation is defined as the synthesis of a protein (polypeptide) using information

Chromosome model: spool pipe cleaners w beads at even increments (histone proteins) around a pen. Spiral that around a metal skewer. Bend the skewer to create the "X" look. You can pull apart the model to show how much space thus configuration takes instead of having entire lengths of DNA floating around during replication
