Translation of RNA to protein happens here

What is a Ribosome?

100

Name the 2 phases of protein synthesis.


What is 1. Transcription (copying DNA into mRNA) and 2. Translation (mRNA codons determine amino acid sequence to make functional proteins)

100
These are the building blocks of proteins.
What are amino acids?
200
The 4 nitrogen bases of DNA
What are Adenine, Thymine, Guanine, and Cytosine?
200

The sequence of nucleotide bases on mRNA that would complement the following bases on DNA: A T T C G C A G T

What DNA code creates a mRNA strand: U A A G C G U C A

200
DNA is copied into a strand of RNA during this step of protein synthesis.
What is Transcription?
200

How mRNA leaves the nucleus to go to cytoplasm.

What is nuclear pores or holes in nuclear membrane?

200

Location of transcription.

What is the nucleus?

300
Two things that happen in the nucleus involving DNA
What are DNA Replication and Transcription?
300

The full names for the three different types of RNA

What are messenger RNA, transfer RNA and ribosomal RNA?

300
Anticodons and amino acids are found on this molecule.
What is transfer RNA?
300

The sequence of DNA that codes for protein(s).

What is a gene?

300
These special types of proteins help to unzip DNA and match up complementary nucleotide bases during DNA replication and protein synthesis.
What are enzymes?
400
The three parts of the DNA nucleotide (building block)
What are deoxyribose sugar, phosphate group and nitrogen base?
400

The names of the 4 nitrogen bases of RNA.

What are Adenine, Cytosine, Guanine and Uracil (A, C, G, U)?

400
Groups of three bases on a mRNA molecule
What is a codon?
400

This is the central dogma of biology.

What is:

DNA code passes to RNA; RNA assembles correct protein


400

What could occur as a result of the wrong base being transcribed in mRNA?

What is a mutation? OR The protein may be made wrong and will not function?

500

The reason why DNA replication happens.

What is to pass on genetic information to other cells during cell division?

500

Name 2 differences between the STRUCTURE of RNA and DNA.

What is:

1. DNA is double stranded & RNA is single stranded? 2. RNA has Ribose and DNA has Deoxyribose? 3. RNA has the base Uracil and DNA has the base Thymine? 

500

The anticodon for CAG?

What is GUC?
