DNA
RNA
Transcription
Translation
Mutations
100
A molecule that stores information.
What is DNA?
100
This carries the information from DNA to a ribosome.
What is RNA?
100
The process of transferring information from DNA to RNA.
What is transcription?
100
Putting the amino acids in sequence.
What is translation?
100
Any change in DNA
What is mutation?
200
A double stranded spiral or a double-helix.
What is the shape of DNA?
200
mRNA, rRNA, and tRNA
What are the three different types of RNA?
200
Uracil
What is the base that is not the same in DNA and RNA?
200
Takes place in the cytoplasm of the cell.
What is the location of where translation happens?
200
These changes in DNA can be helpful, neutral or harmful.
What are the effects of mutations?
300
The process that occurs before a cell divides when all of its DNA is copied.
What is replication?
300
These are made in the cytoplasm.
What is RNA and proteins?
300
Only one strand of DNA is transcribed which means that just a single strand of RNA is produced.
What is the difference between transcription and replication?
300
First, a ribosome attaches to an mRNA molecule at the beginning of a coding region. Second, transfer RNA (tRNA) molecule carrying an amino acid matches up to a complementary triplet on mRNA on the ribosome.
What is the first and second step of translation?
300
This is a disease or condition that results from mutations that effect the normal functioning of a cell .
What is a genetic disorder?
400
A pattern or shape that produces a matching or complementary product.
What is a template?
400
A single stranded molecule.
What is the shape of RNA?
400
The ribosome attaches one amino acid to another as it moves along the mRNA molecule. Then, the tRNA molecules are released after the amino acids they carry are attached to the growing chain of amino acids.
What is the third and fourth step of translation?
400
This is a diagram of family relationships that includes two or more generations.
What is a pedigree?
500
This forms the code for making proteins.
What is the order of bases in a strand of DNA?
500
RNA
What is necessary for making proteins?
500
The DNA molecule opens up along a gene, the nucleotides of RNA match up and join to the open DNA strand, and then the completed RNA strand is released and moves into the cytoplasm.
What are the steps of transcription?
500
The ribosome completes the translation when it reaches the end of the mRNA strand. The newly made protein molecule in the form of a chain of amino acids, is released.
What is the last step of translation?
500
This is a group of genetic disorders, not a single disorder.
What is cancer?
