DNA
This molecule stores genetic information in the nucleus
DNA
This type of RNA carries instructions from the nucleus to the ribosome
mRNA (messenger RNA)
This process takes place at the ribosome to build proteins
Translation
This technique is used to compare DNA samples in criminal investigations
DNA Fingerprinting
This is any change to a DNA sequence
Mutation
These are created during DNA Replication
Complementary base pairs
This base replaces thymine when using RNA
Uracil
These three-base sequences on mRNA code for amino acids
codons
This process involves transferring a gene from one organism to another
Genetic Engineering
This type of mutation changes only one nucleotide
Substitution (point mutation)
This process creates an exact copy of DNA before a cell divides
DNA Replication
This type of RNA matches its anticodon to mRNA codons
tRNA
This molecule brings amino acids to the ribosome
tRNA
This is a positive result of genetically modified crops
increased nutrients or pest resistance
This mutation shifts the reading frame by adding or removing bases
Frameshift mutation
These three parts make up a nucleotide
Phosphate group, sugar, and a nitrogen base
his process makes RNA from a DNA template
Transcription
These two processes are required to go from DNA to protein
Transcription and Translation
This type of therapy works by fixing or replacing faulty genes
Gene therapy
What do we have to examine in order to figure out if a mutation has occurred
The Amino Acid
If one DNA strand is A-T-C-G-A, what is the complimentary strand/
T-A-G-C-T
A single-stranded nucleic acid containing uracil is most likely this
RNA
If an mRNA strand has 10 codons, how many amino acids can it code for??
10
This process is a form of asexual reproduction, creating a genetic copy
Cloning
Frameshift; at the beginning of the DNA chair
