DNA molecule structure
The shape of the overall structure of a DNA molecule is known as THIS.
What is a double helix?
Both DNA and RNA molecules are THIS type of biological macromolecule.
What are nucleic acids?
The name of the sugar molecule in RNA is THIS.
What is ribose?
THIS is what the final product of protein synthesis is.
What is a polypeptide chain, an amino acid chain, or a protein?
THIS is the material used in the DNA extraction lab to dissolve lipid membranes and lyse open the cell.
What is detergent?
In DNA, the nitrogen base adenine pairs with THIS nitrogen base.
What is thymine?
In RNA, the sugar changes from deoxyribose (in DNA) to THIS.
What is ribose?
THIS type of RNA is formed off a piece of DNA template inside the nucleus of the cell.
What is messenger RNA (mRNA)?
In THIS phase of Protein Synthesis, RNA polymerase copies a section of a DNA molecule.
What is transcription?
THIS is the name of an accidental change in DNA or RNA code that may or may not affect the functions of an organism.
What is a mutation?
In DNA, the nitrogen base cytosine pairs with THIS nitrogen base.
What is guanine?
In RNA, thymine is replaced by THIS.
What is uracil?
THIS molecule matches with a codon on mRNA and delivers an amino acid.
What is transfer RNA (tRNA)?
In THIS phase of Protein Synthesis, mRNA leaves the nucleus to produce proteins in the cytoplasm.
What is translation?
The two major types or categories of mutations are gene-level and THIS.
What is chromosomal-level?
The type of bonds that are created between nitrogen base pairs are THESE.
What are hydrogen bonds?
The nucleic acid molecule that is always double-stranded is called THIS. (The full name of the molecule!)
What is Deoxyribonucleic Acid?
THIS type of RNA is combined with proteins to form ribosomes.
What is ribosomal RNA (rRNA)?
In protein synthesis, the DNA template produces a three-letter codon on an mRNA molecule, which then matches with WHAT on a tRNA molecule?
What is an anticodon?
THIS is the material used in the DNA extraction lab that reduced the solubility of the DNA and allowed it to precipitate out of the cell.
What is isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol?
A DNA nucleotide is made up of these 3 molecules.
What are 5-carbon sugar (deoxyribose), phosphate, and a nitrogenous base?
The single-stranded nucleic acid molecule is called THIS. (The full name of the molecule!)
What is Ribonucleic acid?
During transcription, THIS enzyme binds to DNA and assists the process.
What is RNA polymerase?
In the RNA editing process, mRNA gets rid of THESE parts of nitrogen base code that are not needed to make the protein desired by the cell.
What are introns?
In DNA replication, each of the two DNA molecules produced has one strand from the original molecule and one of THESE?
What is a new strand?
