In RNA adenine always pairs with this nitrogenous base
What is uracil?
100
In DNA, Adenine always pairs with this nitrogenous base.
What is thymine?
100
The process in which an mRNA molecule is formed using DNa as a template.
What is transcription?
100
When DNA makes a copy of itself.
What is replication?
100
When DNA makes a copy of itself.
What is replication?
200
This sugar makes up part of the RNA backbone.
What is ribose?
200
Cytosine always pairs with this nitrogenous base.
What is guanine?
200
The process of converting RNA code into an amino acid sequence.
What is translation?
200
Replication is able to go quickly because of this.
What is replication occurring at multiple places on the DNA molecule?
200
This enzyme serves to unzip the DNA molecule prior to replication.
What is the helicase enzyme?
300
This molecule carries genetic information from the nucleus to ribosomes in the cytoplasm to aid in protein synthesis.
What is mRNA?
300
DNA stores the genetic code, or instructions, for this type of molecule.
What are proteins?
300
This molecule is made up of long strings of amino acids.
What is a protein?
300
If a DNA molecule has a sequence of AAG, then the complementary strand will have the following sequence.
What is TTC?
300
This enzyme helps form a new DNA strand during replication and also finds and corrects errors during the replication process.
What is the DNA polymerase enzyme?
400
Ribosomes are made of proteins and this molecule.
What is fRNA?
400
These molecules include adenine, thymine, uracil, guanine and cytosine.
What are nitrogenous bases?
400
Protein synthesis takes place at this organelle in this part of the cell.
What is the ribosome in the cytoplasm?
400
A monomer building block of DNA is made of these three parts.
What are phosphate group, deoxyribose sugar, and nitrogenous base?
400
If a strand of nucleotides contains the base uracil, you know you have this type of molecule.
What is RNA?
500
This molecule has an anti-codon attached to one end and an amino acid attached to the other.
What is tRNA?
500
These two scientists called the DNA molecule a double helix because of its shape.
Who are Watson and Crick?
500
This term describes to flow of genetic information during protein synthesis as going from the DNA to the RNA to a protein.
What is the Central Dogma?
500
This portion of a DNA molecule is typically transcribed and codes for one protein.
