Centromere
Adenine pairs with______, Cytosine pairs with_____
Thymine, Guanine
mRNA --> Polypeptide chain is called ________ and happens in the_______
Translation, Ribosome or cytoplasm.
In which phase of interphase does DNA replication happen?
S phase
What makes up the backbone of DNA
Sugar and Phosphate

Overall sequence of the Central Dogma
DNA --> ____ --> Amino Acids --> _____
mRNA, Trait
Which type of reproduction is Mitosis? Sexual or Asexual? Does that mean that the resulting cells are the same or different?
Asexual - same
What bonds hold the middle of DNA together
Hydrogen
The following DNA strand will result in what mRNA strand: AAA - TAC - TTG
UUU - AUG - AAC
At what point in the cell cycle are mutations most likely to occur?
DNA Replication
What are THREE differences between DNA and RNA
DNA: double stranded, sugar is Deoxyribose, has thyamine.
RNA: single stranded, sugar is ribose, Uracil replaces thyamine.
The following mRNA strand codes for what amino acid sequence?
AAA, CAU, UGU, UGA
Lysine, Asparagine, Cystine, STOP
Mutations occur in _____ (structure) and ____ will ALWAYS be affected, while_______ will sometimes be affected
DNA, mRNA, Amino Acids/Proteins.
Why do cells have many checkpoints before undergoing mitosis?
To make sure the DNA and organelles are properly replicated
What Enzyme lays down new bases in DNA Replication?
DNA Polymerase
The following tRNA strand will code for what Amino acids?
AAA, GCA, CAU, CGU, ACC
Phenylalanine, Arginine, Valine, Alanine, Tryptophan
Rapid unregulated cell division will likely cause. This often is the result of ______ which come from (2 sources)?
Cancer, Mutations, DNA Replication errors, Environmental factors.
tRNA carries _______ to ________ and has a sequence of bases called ________ that will briefly bind to the ______ of mRNA
Amino Acids, Ribosomes, Anti-codon, Codon
