Once generated, a tsunami wave in the open ocean can travel with speeds greater than 800 kilometres an hour (500 miles an hour). These waves can travel across the Pacific Ocean in less than one day. Locally generated tsunamis can reach coastlines in just minutes.
Although the nuclear DNA contains all of the information or codes necessary to make proteins, protein synthesis does not occur in the nucleus. Instead, an enzyme called RNA polymerase attaches to one end of a specific length of DNA and moves along the molecule making an RNA copy.lthough the nuclear DNA contains all of the information or codes necessary to make proteins, protein synthesis does not occur in the nucleus.

Known as the cellâs âcommand center,â the nucleus is a large organelle that stores the cellâs DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). The nucleus controls all of the cellâs activities, such as growth and metabolism, using the DNAâs genetic information. Within the nucleus is a smaller structure called the nucleolus, which houses the RNA (ribonucleic acid). RNA helps convey the DNAâs orders to the rest of the cell and serves as a template for protein synthesis.
