Understand the central dogma of molecular biology, which describes the flow of genetic information: DNA is transcribed into mRNA, and mRNA is translated into a polypeptide (protein).
Recognize that translation is the process where the mRNA sequence is read by the ribosome to assemble amino acids into a polypeptide chain.
Identify that the immediate product of translation (gene expression from an mRNA template) is a polypeptide, which can fold into a functional protein.
Note that a mature mRNA transcript is the product of transcription and RNA processing, not translation, so it is not the immediate product of gene expression during translation.
Conclude that neither a lipid bilayer membrane nor a double-stranded DNA molecule is produced directly from mRNA during translation.
