This is the scientist that first captured an image of DNA, though she was not credited until after her death
Who is Rosalind Franklin
If the tRNA sequence is CGUAAUCGC, this would be the DNA sequence that this was derived from.
CGTAATCGC
This type of bond holds together amino acids.
What is peptide bond
This is what happens during the first step of DNA replication
the hydrogen bonds break between the bases.
This enzyme adds bases to the leading strand
What is DNA Polymerase
