100
What is RNA short for?
ribonucleic acid
100
What is protein synthesis?
the process of making proteins by using the information present in the DNA
100
what is mutations
it changes the genetic material
100
What is a "codon"?
a sequence of three nucleotides that together form a unit of genetic code in a DNA or RNA molecule.
200
True or False the DNA is not imported to the human body?
False
200
How is RNA different from DNA?
(1) the sugar in RNA is ribose not dioxyribose; (2) RNA is generally single-stranded and not double-stranded; and (3) RNA contains uracil in place of thymine.
200
What do proteins synthesis help with?
regulating various cell functions
200
what is chromosomal mutations?
mutations that produce changes in whole chromosomes

What is the function of mRNA?
Messenger RNA carries copies of the genetic instructions from DNA to other parts of the cell.
300
were does protein synthesis happen?
cellular structures called ribosomes

What are the repeating units of DNA called?

nucleotides

400
What is the structure of DNA?
a double helix

What is the job of RNA?
Protein synthesis, or the assembly of amino acids into proteins.
400
what RNA is involved with protein synthesis?
Messenger RNA (mRNA), Ribosomal RNA (rRNA), and Transfer RNA (tRNA).
