This nitrogen base is found in RNA, but not in DNA
Uracil
Where does transcription take place?
In the nucleus
What is a codon?
it is a series of 3 nitrogen bases found on an mRNA strand
Reactants of prepatory reaction of cellular respiration
Glucose
What are 3 types of RNA?
mRNA, tRNA and rRNA
What is the structure difference in DNA and mRNA?
DNA is a double Helix, RNA is a single Helix.
What mRNA bases would pair with this strand of DNA: G-G-A-T-C-G-C-C-T-A
C-C-U-A-G-C-G-G-A-U
What occurs during translation?
an mRNA strand is "decoded" into a sequence of amino acids, that result in a protein

What is the relationship between amino acids and proteins?
What is important about these three codons: UGA, UAA, and UAG?
They are "stop" codons and they signal that the protein is done being assembled.
What are 2 parts of protein synthesis called?
Transcription and Translation
What is the result of transcription?
a copy of a gene is made, using mRNA
Which of the following line in the graph represent the use of an enzyme?

Red Line
What is the chemical formula for cellular respiration?
O2 + Glucose -> CO2 + H2O + ATP
These portions are noncoding segments of RNA that get removed prior to translation.
Introns
What sugar is found in DNA, versus RNA?
DNA has deoxyribose sugar and RNA has ribose sugar.
Chemical formula for glucose?
C₆H₁₂O₆
What two things are on either end of a tRNA molecule?
How many amino acids are there?
20
Properly identify numbers 1,2, and 3
3. Enzyme

Upon beginning the Krebs Cycle, Acetyl CoA (4 Carbons) combines with Oxaloacetic Acid (2 Carbons) to form what acid, which also lends it's name to the alternative name of the Krebs Cycle.
These are the three products from the glycolysis reaction.
Pyruvate, NADH, ATP
Using the codon chart, determine what amino acid correlates to the mRNA codon U-U-G

Leu
What are the three products from the Pre-Krebs Cycle reaction?
Acetyl-CoA, CO2, NADH
