RNA
responsible for our traits (ex. brown hair, etc.)
What is the sequence of nitogen bases?
(sequence of amino acids; protein produced)
Harmful, Beneficial, Neutral
What are the effects of mutations on organisms?
codon chart
What is a chart where you can look up codons to determine what amino acid is coded for?
Silent mutation
What is a mutation that does not cause a change in an amino acid sequence? a neutral mutation?
Base-Pair Rule for RNA
What is Adenine w/Uracil and Cytosine w/Guanine
Missense mutation
What is a mutation that leads to a change in amino acids? new variations in traits?
ribosomal RNA
What is RNA that makes up the structure of ribosome and is responsible for assembling proteins?
The type of RNA that is associated with both transcription and translation.
What is messenger RNA (mRNA)?
Point Mutation
What is a gene mutation that happens in one point (substitution, insertion, deletion)?
Nonsense mutation
What is a mutation that creates a stop codon in DNA? Usually a causes a harmful effect on an organism?
Messenger RNA
What is RNA that transcribes that code that is used to make protein?
codon
What is the 3-base code located on mRNA that codes for a specific amino acid?
Types of RNA are involved in translation
What are mRNA, tRNA, and rRNA?
Types of mutations that cause a frameshift mutation.
What is an insertion/deletion mutation?
