In the unit, the student will learn much information about the process of replication and synthesis within a cell. They will understand that these are essential to the reproduction process in all living organisms. The student will be expected to demonstrate their knowledge of the transportation of genetic information from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. From the cytoplasm, the translation process is able to take place. During translation, the information is decoded and used to produce a sequence of amino acids which form a protein. The student will also perform a lab in which they explore the translation process and better understand what happens within the cell during this stage. The student must know all of the necessary vocabulary from this unit as well. By the end of this unit, the student should have a very clear understanding of the above concepts.
