Scientists who discovered the double helix structure of DNA

Watson and Crick

100

DNA replication occurs during this phase of the cell cycle

S

100
Transcription takes place in this organelle in eukaryotes

Nucleus

100

Translation takes place at this location in eukaryotes

Cytoplasm

The enzyme that unzips DNA during replication

Helicase

200

Scientist who discovered A = T and C = G

Chargaff

DNA replication is not conservative, it is: 

Semiconservative

200

The type of RNA created during transcription

mRNA

200

While a start codon will begin translation, this codon will end it

Stop codon
200

The complement to this DNA strand is created in one continuous piece

Leading strand

This woman's photograph helped piece together the structure of DNA

Franklin

300

The main enzyme involved with DNA replication

DNA polymerase

300

The main enzyme involved in transcription

RNA polymerase

300

Three nucleotides that code for an amino acid

Codon

300

"DNA --> RNA --> Protein" is referred to as the

Central dogma of biology

400

Through his work with bacteria, Griffith discovered a

Transforming principle

400

The leading strand runs in this direction toward the replication fork

3' --> 5'

400

Just like replication, transcription must do this to the double helix

Unwind/unzip it

400
The organelle responsible for translating a protein

Ribosome

400

AUG codes for this amino acid

Met

500

Their work in discovering DNA as the transforming principle went "viral"

Hershey & Chase

500

The lagging strand is created in pieces called

Okazaki fragments
500

The original DNA strand and the mRNA strand are not identical, but

Complementary

500

This process is called translation because we are converting nucleotides into

Amino acids
