DNA
double-helix; self-replicating material that is present in nearly all living organisms as a foundation
DNA
An RNA that's used to carry DNA's genetic code outside the cell nucleus so it can be used as the instructions to build proteins.
mRNA
What is a chromosome?
A thread-like structure made up of DNA found in the nucleus of each cell.
Disease caused by mutations that overlooks the malfunction on checkpoints and replicates
Cancer
Unique sequence of DNA - two inherited alleles in the gene code, not specifically expressed
Genotype
What are the codes for DNA? (two pairs)
A-T(Adenine Thymine) and G-C(Guanine Cytosine)
RNA is a product of what process?
transcription
Complete set of DNA to the organism
genome
Type of tumor that results from metastasis
Malignant
Detectable expression of genes
Phenotype
Sequence of three nucleotides which together form a unit of genetic code in a DNA or RNA molecule
codon
Enzyme that opens the double helix and assembles complementary mRNA to DNA template
RNA polymerase
Process by which the gene turns on to be a functional protein, etc(ex. may be shown as an eye color)
Gene expression
Cancer treatment from which effects are hair loss, compromised immune system.
Chemotherapy
What is the percentage of the offspring being Rr in the couple with RR and rr genotype?
100%
Where is DNA located?
in the nucleus of each cell
Small RNA molecules that carry amino acids to the ribosome for polymerization into a polypeptide
tRna
The changing of the structure of a gene, resulting in a variant form that may be transmitted to subsequent generations.
mutation
What is the type of cancer that is rare and develops in bones and soft tissues?
Sarcoma
What is the type of blood that can be used for any other?
Type O
Subunits of nucleic acids
Nucleotides
Macromolecule consisting of 2 RNA subunits
ribosome
Process of having two identical offspring daughter cells
Which is the type of cancer to occur in bone marrow?
Leukemia
What is the type of blood that can accept any?
