The process of making mRNA from DNA is called this.  

What is transcription?  

100
mRNA is made at this location in the cell.  

What is the nucleus?  

100

The type of RNA that carries the information from the DNA is this.  

What is messenger RNA?  

100

The three stop codons are these.  

What are UAA, UGA, and UAG?   

100

The process of making protein using mRNA is called this.  

What is translation?  

200

The anti-codon that is found on the tRNA that recognizes the start codon is this.  

What is UAC?  

200
This can be found at one end of the tRNA while this can be found at the other end.  

What are the anti-codon and the amino acid?  

200

The two names for the 5' to 3' strand of DNA are these.  

What are coding strand and sense strand?  

200

There are this many different tRNA's that can be used for translation.  

What is 61?  

200

The two names for the 3' to 5' strand of DNA are these.  

What are the anti-sense strand and template strand?  

300

In pre-mRNA, the segments that are not used for protein synthesis are called by this term.  

What are introns?  

300

This is the end of the mRNA that receives the "cap", while this end of the mRNA gets the "tail."  (The answers must be in the correct order to receive credit for this question.)  

What are the 5' end and the 3' end of the mRNA?  
300

The parts needed to protect the mRNA which are added before the mRNA leaves the nucleus are called by these terms.  

What are the Guanosine Triphosphate Cap and the poly-A tail?  

300

This is the enzyme that does the work of making pre-mRNA from DNA.  

What is RNA polymerase?  

300

This is the chemical that removes the introns from pre-mRNA, thus leaving separate pieces of exons that are disconnected from each other.  

What is the spliceosome?  

400

This is the equivalent of the mRNA start codon on the anti-sense strand of DNA.  

What is the promoter (or TATA Box)?  

400

This is the equivalent of the mRNA stop codon on the template strand of DNA.  

What is the termination signal?  

400

If the sense strand of DNA reads:  5'-ATT-TAA-3', the corresponding mRNA would be this.  

What is 5'-AUU-UAA-3'.  

400

If the DNA sense strand reads:  5'-CAT-TAG-3', the anti-sense strand would be this.

What is 3'-GTA-ATC-5'?  

400

If the tRNA has an anti-codon reads 3'-CGA-5', the amino acid it is carrying is this.  

What is alanine?  

500

The three anti-codons that NO tRNA molecules carry are these.  

What are AUU, AUC, and ACU?  

500

If mRNA is 3'-UAC-GAA-5', the corresponding amino acids are these.  

What are lysine and histidine?  

500

If the DNA sense strand is 3'-GGC-TAG-5', the amino acids that would result are these.  

What are aspartic acid and arginine?

500

If a section of DNA anti-sense strand reads:  5'-GGC-AAT-3', the tRNA anti-codons would be these.  

What are 3'-UAA-5' and 3'-CGG-5'?  

500

If a t-RNA anticodon reads 5'-CAG-3', the amino acid it is carrying would be this.  

What is leucine?
