DNA Structure
This is the SHAPE DNA is described as.
What is double helix?
In the cell, this is the organelle where DNA is stored.
What is the nucleus?
The chemical messenger in between DNA and protein synthesis.
What is mRNA
The 2 scientists that first modeled the physical structure of DNA.
Who are Watson and Crick?
The idea that humans can create a more successful society by controlling which genes stay in the population and which genes are removed.
Eugenics
In DNA, Cytosine always bonds with _____.
What is Guanine?
During DNA replication, the complementary DNA strand for ACGTCA would be:
What is TGCAGT?
In the cell, these are the organelles where translation of mRNA takes place.
What are the ribosomes?
The scientist known for their famous X-ray crystallography photo of DNA.
Who is Rosalind Franklin?
An experimental method pioneered in 1930s Europe that compares shared traits in siblings who are either genetically different or genetically identical.
What is a twin study?
These two things make up the "backbone" of DNA.
What is phosphate and sugar (deoxyribose)?
DNA Replication needs to occur before this cellular process.
What is cell division (mitosis or meiosis)
During DNA transcription, the complementary DNA strand for ACGTCA would be:
UGCAGU
Who is Muller?
The phenomenon that only occurs in single-celled organisms in which an individual can take DNA from the environment and incorporate it into its genome.
What is transformation?
If a DNA strand had 40% cytosine, how much adenine would it have?
What is 10%?
The enzyme that synthesizes DNA nucleotides together to create a new strand.
What is DNA Polymerase?
What is methionine (MET)?
The scientist who discovered that DNA is the carrier of genetic information by showing it's the only molecule necessary for transformation.
Who is Avery?
The idea that percentages of Adenine match up with Thymine and percentages of Cytosine match up with Guanine is called this.
What is Chargaff's rule?
The name of the protein that DNA wraps around to form a chromosome.
What is chromatin?
The name for the type of error in DNA replication that results in a single nucleotide difference from the original sequence.
What is a point mutation?
The two RNA codons that match up with Phenylalanine (PHE).
What are UUU and UUC?
The 2 scientists who proved the relationship between DNA and proteins through their experiments mutant strains of bread mold.
Who are Beadle and Tatum?
The number of the x-ray crystallography photograph of a DNA molecule that inspired the double helix theory.
What is photo 51?
