protein synthesis Enter rubric description
	Poor 5 pts	Fair 10 pts	Good 15 pts	Excellent 20 pts
Drawing 20 pts Drawing/model is accurate showing all essential components	Poor Many components involved in protein synthesis are missing or mislabeled	Fair One or two components involved in protein synthesis are missing or mislabeled	Good All components are labeled properly	Excellent All components are labeled properly and show an extra effort for clarity and detail
Genetic Code 20 pts At least two DNA triplet codes are properly transcribed into 2 mRNA codons	Poor Codes are incorrectly transcribed or not shown	Fair Only one code is transcribed correctly	Good Two or more codes are transcribed and labeled correctly	Excellent Two or more codes are transcribed and labeled correctly and with extra effort for clarity and detail
Connections (one) 20 pts At least two codon-anticodon combinations are properly labeled	Poor Codon-anticodon combinations are not understood or missing	Fair Only one codon-anticodon combination is shown correctly	Good Two or more codon-anticodon combinations are shown correctly	Excellent Two or more codon-anticodon combinations are shown correctly with an extra effort for clarity and detail
Connection (two) 20 pts At least two amino acids are linked by pertide bonds showing the beginnings of a peptide chain (translation)	Poor Connections between DNA or mRNA code and amino acids is not represented clearly or accurately	Fair Only one amino acid is shown without any reference to peptide bonds	Good Two or more amino acids are shown with one or more peptide bonds labeled between the amino acids	Excellent Two or more amino acids are shown with one or more peptide bonds clearly labeled between amno acids. A peptide chain is clearly represented.
Correct coding 20 pts All DNA, mRNA, tRNA and amino acids shall match proper triplet codes	Poor Two or more of the codes shown (DNA-mRNA), (mRNA-tRNA), (mRNA translated to amino acid sequence) are incorrect	Fair One of the codes shown is incorrect	Good All codes are accurate	Excellent All codes are accurate but drawing/model represented with extra clarity and detail
