The process of translation is the step in the central dogma of molecular biology that describes how sequences from RNA are transformed into amino acids. Translation is the process by which the genetic information carried by mRNA (messenger RNA) is used to synthesize proteins. It occurs in the cytoplasm of cells and involves the interaction of mRNA with ribosomes, tRNA (transfer RNA), and amino acids.
The nervous system plays a crucial role in receiving sensory input from various sources, processing that information, and generating appropriate responses. It controls bodily functions, motor movements, cognition, and behavior. Any disruption or failure in the nervous system can result in significant and immediate effects on perception, cognition, motor control, and overall responsiveness.
A meteorite is a solid object, typically a fragment of a larger celestial body such as an asteroid or a comet, that survives its passage through the Earth's atmosphere and lands on the Earth's surface. Meteorites are often composed of various minerals and elements, including metals like nickel and iron. They can exhibit characteristic features such as craters, fusion crust (formed during atmospheric entry), and other signs of interaction with the Earth's atmosphere.
