Snorkitty Snork Snork

In this class we looked at the process of translation.  Translation is where RNA is read by a ribosome and transformed into proteins based on the coding in the RNA.  In this labs these proteins then show up as traits in mythical beings known as snorks.  Lovable, but dangerous creatures indeed.  We looked at a small strand of RNA that would hypothetically represent 9 main traits.  Every group was given a different strand of RNA so that everyone's snork would look different in the end based on their physical traits.  This is how it works in real creatures cells as well, but on a much larger scale.  For the snorks though, mine came out as such:
