Student Exploration: RNA and Protein Synthesis Directions 2026

1. Click ‘Get Form’ to open it in the editor.
2. Begin by entering your name and the date at the top of the form. This personalizes your document and keeps track of submissions.
3. Review the vocabulary section. Familiarize yourself with terms like 'amino acid' and 'transcription' as they will be essential for understanding the activities.
4. Answer the prior knowledge questions thoughtfully. These responses set a foundation for your exploration, so take your time to reflect on each question.
5. Proceed to the Gizmo Warm-up section. Use our platform's interactive features to drag RNA polymerase onto the DNA strand, observing how it functions in transcription.
6. Continue through Activities A and B, filling in answers based on your observations from the Gizmo simulation. Make sure to describe processes like transcription and translation clearly.
7. Complete the Extension section without using the Gizmo, applying what you've learned about genes and traits to answer each question thoroughly.
