DNA
What is the structure of DNA
Double helix
Amino acid chain
mRNA is made in this process
transcription
What does mRNA do
Carries RNA copy of DNA to the ribosome
What is the function of proteins
structural support
When does DNA replication occur
S phase
The process where mRNA is read and made into amino acid chain
translation
During transcription, this type of RNA is responsible for copying the DNA
mRNA
What does tRNA do
Brings amino acids to the ribosome for protein synthesis
What is the code to make proteins
DNA
These building blocks consist of sugar phosphate and nitrogen base
nucleotide
During translation, AUG corresponds to which amino acid?
Methionine
What is the mRNA strand that would result from the DNA template strand CCTA
GGAU
What does rRNA do
read the order of amino acids and link amino acids together.
When these bond together, they form a protein
amino acids
What binds with adenine in DNA
Translation occurs in which part of the cell
cytoplasm
Transcription occurs in which part of the cell
nucleus
This is the triplet of bases on the end of a tRNA molecule
Anticodon
How many amino acids are found on one tRNA
1
DNA holds the code for what
protein
What is the mRNA for the DNA strand TAC GTA
AUG CAU
In RNA what does uracil pair with
adenine
There are a total of how many different amino acids
20
