Parts of Genetic information System
the primary molecule carrying genetic information
DNA
to store all the genetic information needed for an organism to develop, function, and reproduce
DNA
Every cell in the human body has a nucleus where the genetic information the cell uses to make proteins is stored
True
a key building block for nucleic acids (DNA and RNA)
Adenine
Messenger RNA
most important part of an object
Nucleus
store the genetic information needed to produce proteins
Genes
the nucleus doesnt store the genetic information of the cell
false
primary function is to act as a nucleobase in DNA, where it specifically pairs with adenine through hydrogen bonds
Thymine
Transfer RNA
Structures within the cell nucleus where DNA is organized
Chromosomes
store and protect the cell's genetic material (DNA),
nucleus
chromosomes are extremely short DNA molecules
false
acting as a nitrogenous base that pairs specifically with cytosine to encode genetic information within the nucleic acid structure, playing a crucial role in maintaining DNA stability and replication
guanine
Ribosomal RNA
Specific segments of DNA that code for the production of proteins, which are responsible for various functions in the body.
Genes
carry genetic information to be passed on from one generation to another.
chromosomes
Every DNA molecule is made of two spiraling chemical chains in a double helix structure
true
plays an essential role in forming base pairs by bonding with guanine and forming the genetic code found in both DNA and RNA.
cytosine
A type of regulatory RNA that can inhibit gene expression
Micro RNA
Different variations of a gene, leading to different traits within a population.
Alleles
contribute to the organism's phenotype, which is the outward appearance of the organism
Alleles
nucleotides are the chemical structures that make up a DNA molecule
true
a carrier of genetic information from DNA to the ribosomes
RNA
plays a central role in RNA splicing, which removes non-coding sequences from pre-mRNA
Small Nuclear RNA
