Transcription
Transcription takes place here in eukaryotes
What is the nucleus
Produces proteins
Ribosomes
Translation takes place here.
What is ribosomes
This part of the cell cycle occurs before meiosis can start
What is interphase
Amino acids form this
What is a Polypeptide (or protein)
ATGCAGGGA
UACGUCCCU
Contains DNA
What is the nucleus
Monomer of proteins
What are amino acids
This is the primary purpose for meiosis
What is to make babies?
Sequence of three nucleotides to code for an amino acid
What is a codon
TTACATGTT
AAUGUACAA
Modifies and packages proteins for transport outside of the cell
What is the Golgi Apparatus
The biological name for the sequence of making proteins
What is the Central Dogma
This term refers to the doubled amount of chromosomes at the start of meiosis
What is diploid
The study of inherited genes
What is epigenetics
TAGCTGGTA
AUCGACCAU
Aids in production of membrane and secretory proteins
Rough endoplasmic reticulum
This molecule carries genetic code from DNA to ribosomes
What is mRNA?
This is an event where DNA is swapped during Prophase 1
What is crossing over
A specific DNA sequence that acts as the starting point for transcription
What is a promoter
AAATTCGGCATT
UUUAAGCCGUAA
Synthesizes lipids and carbohydrates
What is the smooth endoplasmic reticulum
Its role is to bind to codons on mRNA
What are anticodons
Sister chromatids are separated during this phase
What is anaphase 2
Unzips DNA in preparation for transcription
What is RNA polymerase
