Transcription
this is where it occurs
What is the nucleus?
the type of RNA that functions as a blueprint
What is mRNA?
the number of different amino acids required to make a protein
What is 20?
The enzyme that breaks the bonds between the nitrogen bases
What is DNA Helicase?
sugar found in RNA
What is ribose?
the final product of this process
What is mRNA?
nucleic acid used to bring amino acids to the ribosome
What is tRNA?
an error in a DNA sequence
What is a mutation?
The phase DNA is replicated in.
S phase/Interphase
makes ribosomes
What is rRNA?
the nitrogen base that pairs up with Adenine
What is Uracil?
The product of translation
What is a protein?
group of bases found on tRNA
What is anticodon?
base building block of DNA
What is nucleotide?
brings amino acids to ribosomes
What is tRNA?
grouping of three bases into these units
What are codons?
the role of rRNA in translation
What is site of protein production?
location of tRNA when not making polypeptide chains
What is cytoplasm?
sugar found in DNA
What is deoxyribose?
the making of mRNA
What is transcription?
the enzyme that makes the mRNA from the DNA
What is RNA polymerase?
The types of RNA that are used in translation
mRNA, tRNA, and rRNA
This type of mutation is more devastating than the other
What is frameshift?
enzyme that adds the complementary bases to create the new DNA strand
What is polymerase?
uracil replaces this base
What is thymine?
