100
In which part of the cell DNA is found
What is nucleus?
100
Give one function of protein.
What is structural (make up structure of the living things), or functional (helps our body to work properly)?
100
Translation of mRNA to protein happens here, this is a cell organelle that makes protein
What is a Ribosome?
100
First step of DNA replication
What is unwind?
100
These are the building blocks of proteins.
What are amino acids?
200
The 4 nitrogen bases of DNA
What are Adenine, Thymine, Guanine, and Cytosine?
200
The sequence of nucleotide bases on mRNA that would complement the following bases on DNA: A T T C G C A G T
What is U A A G C G U C A
200
DNA is copied into a strand of RNA during this step of protein synthesis.
What is Transcription?
200
DNA helicase breaks the bond that joins nucleotides together
What is a hydrogen bond?
200
Enzyme that UNZIPS the DNA
What is DNA Helicase?
300
There are two steps in making protein, which process is the copying of genetic information from DNA to RNA take place.
What is Transcription?
300
A section of DNA that determines the sequence of amino acids in a protein.
What is a gene?
300
T of tRNA stands for
What is transfer RNA?
300
Enzymes that bond nucleotides together
What is ligase?
300
Helper Protein
What are enzymes?
400
The three parts of the DNA nucleotide (building block)
What are deoxyribose sugar, phosphate group and nitrogen base?
400
The names of the 4 nitrogen bases of RNA.
What are Adenine, Cytosine, Guanine and Uracil?
400
Groups of three bases on a mRNA molecule
What is a codon?
400
The name of DNA replication.
What is the Semi-conservative replication?
400
Protein that is part of DNA replication, identify its function.
What is SSB, a single-strand binding protein? It is used for holding the stand of DNA open.
500
Write the DNA in full on the board.
What is Deoxyribonucleic Acid?
500
Difference of DNA and mRNA.
DNA is double strand, longer, and found in the nucleus.
mRNA is double strand, shorter than DNA, made in the nucleus but transported in the cytoplasm.
500
Using the codon wheel, what amino acids are used for the following sequence? AUG/AAC/GAC/UAA
What are Methionine, Asparagine, Aspartic Acid, STOP?
500
Explain the difference between DNA polymerase I and DNA polymerase III.
DNA Polymerase I - Check or proofread new strands and backtracks to correct errors
DNA Polymerase III - bonds (put together) free nucleotides with nucleotides on each template (parent) strand using base pairing rules.
500
DIfference between codon and anticodon
- Codon: found on mRNA. It is the instruction for an amino acid.
- Anticodon: found on tRNA. It matches the codon and brings the correct amino acid.
