100
The sequence of DNA that directs the synthesis of a specific protein.
What is a Gene?
100
Transcription occurs here.
What is the Nucleus?
100
Translation occurs here.
What is the Cytoplasm?
100
These are unneeded portions and are removed from the mRNA.
What is Introns?
100
The coding region of the DNA is called...
What is Gene?
200
Consisting of 3 nucleotides.
What is a Codon/Triplet?
200
This replaces Thymine in RNA.
What is Uracil?
200
The three steps in Translation.
What is Initiation, Elongation, & Termination?
200
These contain the codons and are spliced together.
What is Exons?
200
The beginning part of the DNA sequence that starts transcription is called...
What is the Promoter?
300
The presence and action of proteins determines the _______________ of an organism.
What is the Phenotype?
300
This catalyzes the transcription.
What is RNA Polymerase?
300
In initiation the mRNA start codon aligns on this site.
What is the P site?
300
This is added to the ends of the mRNA sequence.
What is a Cap?
300
The ending sequence of the DNA that stops transcription is called...
What is the Terminator Sequence?
400
AUG codes for which specific amino acid.
What is Methionine?
400
Name the three types of RNA.
What is mRNA, tRNA, rRNA?
400
During termination there are ________ tRNA matches to the stop codon.
What is No?
400
This contains an anticodon complementary to the mRNA codon.
What is tRNA?
400
The two sites in the ribosomal subunit.
What is P & A?
500
There are _____ combinations of codons plus ____ stop codons.
What is 61 and 3?
500
Name and explain the stages of transcription.
What is Initiation: RNA polymerase binds to a promoter and starts transcription, Elongation: RNA nucleotides are added to the chain, and Termination: RNA polymerase reaches a terminator sequence and detaches from the template?
500
The three steps and what happens in Elongation.
What is Codon recognition: next tRNA binds to the mRNA at the A site, Peptide Bond Formation: amino acids bonded to tRNA in P site is removed and bonded to the amino acid in the A site, Translocation: tRNA in P site leaves, mRNA shifts down one codon, tRNA in A is now in P, and new tRNA can now come into A?
500
Made in the nucleus and moves to the cytoplasm.
What is tRNA and mRNA?
500
