DNA Structure
In DNA, C always bonds with _____.
G
This is the site (organelle) of DNA replication.
nucleus
The site (organelle) of transcription.
nucleus
The site (organelle) of translation in the cell.

This is the SHAPE DNA is described as.
double helix
The fact that each new DNA molecule is half parental strand and half newly synthesized
Semiconservative replication
The molecule produced in transcription.
mRNA
The product of translation (what translation makes)

Deletion
This is the name of the subunit of DNA and contains a sugar, a phosphate, and a base.
nucleotide
The stage of the cell cycle in which replication takes place.
S (synthesis) stage
If the DNA sequence is GCATTA, this is the mRNA sequence.
CGUAAU
The name for the sets of 3 nucleotides on the mRNA.
codon
The name for the fragments of DNA created on the lagging strand during replication.
