the order and sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide are defined by the sequence of bases in the mRNA . During the process of translation, the mRNA provides the actual template for protein synthesis, while tRNA acts as an adapter that reads the genetic code and brings the corresponding amino acids . Although the genetic information originates in the DNA, it is represented by the mRNA during the assembly of amino acids into a protein . Understanding this flow of information is a high-priority strategy for medical aspirants, as NCERT textbooks serve as the primary source for approximately 95% of NEET Biology questions .
