what is Messenger RNA and how does it work??
In: Biology
DNA is very valuable, you dont want it hanging around in the open so its kept safe inside the cell nucleus. Pretend DNA is the Declaration of Independence.
If you want to read the Dec of Independence, you cant just go and grab the original one. You take the original and make copies of it to distribute to the rest of the people. mRNA is a copy of a certain sequence of DNA that allows genes to be read while keeping the original source safe.
