Protein synthesis is a complicated process involving DNA being transcribed to RNA, which is then translated into amino acids. Complete the DNA-to-amino acid table for three consecutive codons with the appropriate nucleotides and amino acids using a codon table. Nucleotide and amino add options can be used multiple times or not at all.
