Let's Make a Protein
Anything Goes
100
It contains Thymine
What is DNA?
100
The monomer of DNA
What is a nucleotide?
100
Bonds that are unzipped to separate the two strands of DNA
What is a hydrogen bond?
100
What a gene codes for
What is a protein or amino acid chain?
100
The three parts of a nucleotide
What is sugar, phosphate and nitrogen base?
200
It is single stranded
What is RNA?
200
The sides of the DNA ladder
What is the sugar-phosphate backbone or dexoyribose and phosphate?
200
When DNA unzips, each strand serves as this for the new strand to make sure the copy is exact
What is a template or pattern?
200
The ribosome and what occurs here
What is the site of protein synthesis where mRNA codons are read
200
A sequence of three nitrogen bases that codes for an amino acid
What is a codon?
300
It is directly involved in translation
What is RNA (mRNA, tRNA and rRNA)?
300
The "rungs" of the DNA ladder
What are the nitrogen bases? A-T and C-G
300
The complementary strand for ATGCAC
What is TACGTG?
300
The two steps or processes of protein synthesis
What is transcription and translation?
300
The process of making proteins on the ribosomes based on instructions from mRNA
What is Translation?
400
It contains Uracil
What is RNA?
400
It's shape is like a twisted ladder, or the more scientific sounding description
What is a double helix?
400
This is the reason DNA replication occurs
What is to copy DNA for cell division?
400
The correct sequence in the transfer of information for most organisms or the central dogma of biology
What is DNA to RNA to protein?
400
A substance that can cause a change in the DNA code of an organism
What is a mutagen?
500
It can be found in the nucleus
What is DNA and RNA?
500
Chargaff's Rule or the complementary base pairs for DNA
What is A pairs with T and C pairs with G?
500
DNA is found here
What is the nucleus?
500
Because DNA can't leave the nucleus
What is why we need messenger RNA (mRNA)?
500
Write the matching mRNA code from DNA strand TAG CAT
