Writing/Literary Texts. Students write literary texts to express their ideas and feelings about real events, and SCIENTIFIC CONCEPTS.

Writing Process. Students use elements of the writing process (planning, drafting, revising, editing, and publishing) to compose text.

Students have to use the proper vocabulary to answer the questions in the short article (Avoid copy paste, plagiarism (originality) will be checked).

My hope for you, as your teacher, is that this project will help you, the student, be familiar with the molecular process of making proteins (something that is happening every millisecond in your own body).

This task will provide you with the opportunity to learn how to edit your work to be presented to an audience, mentioning scientific research and explaining terms used in the medical community in a way that it can be read for any person.

Finally,

When you have finished editing, please hand it in to me in PDF FORMAT using Google classroom.

DEADLINE:
JANUARY 29
23:59h

IN THE FUTURE I MAY POST SOME OF THE FINAL PIECES using Padlet, for everyone to read, so please make sure it is something you are comfortable sharing.

ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS INSIDE YOUR ARTICLE BY USING --JUST-- THE ARTICLES AND THE VIDEO  --DO NOT GOOGLE THE QUESTIONS--

HOW  START AS A WRITER?
The first thing that a writer does is a RESEARCH:

Here I selected 2 articles and 1 video for you to read and extract valuable information to create your own article answering the following questions:

1. According to the video explain briefly what is transcription and translation (key words to mention: ribosome, mRNA, amino acids).

2. In the first article "COVID-19: Viral shutdown of protein synthesis" the authors talk about the protein Nsp1, what is its role and how is affecting the immune system of the host?

3. In the second article "Virus that causes COVID-19 puts a plug in cellular defenses" the authors mention that the protein Nsp1 alters the host gene expression, how this process happens and why the ribosomes are involved?
