Protein Synthesis 2
100
The shape of the DNA molecule.
What is double helix?
100
The nitrogen base found in RNA but not in DNA.
What is U?
100
The location where DNA Replication occurs.
What is the nucleus?
100
DNA --> RNA.
What is transcription?
100
Three bases on mRNA that code for one amino acid.
What is codon?
200
The two molecules that make up the "backbone" of the DNA strands.
What is sugar and phosphate?
200
The process that produces RNA.
What is transcription?
200
When DNA Replicates.
What is before cell division?
200
RNA --> Protein
What is translation?
200
(Using the codon chart), the amino acids coded for by the following mRNA strand: UCU ACU CGC
What is Serine, Threonine, Arginine?
300
The subunit (building block) of DNA.
What is nucleotide?
300
The three types of RNA.
What are mRNA, tRNA, and rRNA?
300
The enzyme responsible for unzipping genes.
What is helicase?
300
The location where translation occurs.
What is the ribosome?
300
(Using the codon chart), the series of amino acids coded for by the following DNA strand: TAC CGC CCC
What is Methionine, Alanine, Glycine?
400
The four nitrogen bases found in DNA.
What are A, T, C, and G?
400
RNA can do this, but DNA cannot.
What is leave the nucleus?
400
The term used to describe replication because each new DNA molecule contains one old and one new strand.
What is semi-conservative?
400
The subunits (building blocks) used to construct proteins.
What is amino acids?
400
The bond that form between amino acids.
What is peptide bonds?
500
The two guys who get the credit for the discovery of DNA structure.
Who are Watson and Crick?
500
The sugars found in DNA and RNA, respectively.
What are deoxyribose and ribose?
500
The enzyme responsible for building new DNA strands.
What is DNA Polymerase?
500
Three bases on tRNA that complement mRNA.
