100

Before the creation of the mRNA strand can begin, RNA polymerase must do this

What is bind to and unzip the DNA?

100

This is the name of the codon that is attaches to an amino acid

What is tRNA?

100

This enzyme has to bind to DNA before helicase can begin to unzip DNA

What is topoisomerase?

100

These are the structural differences between DNA and RNA

DNA: 2 strands, T not U

RNA: 1 strand, U not T

100

This bug/flying type pokemon that can evolve into a bug/steel or bug/rock type also was incredibly dominant early in the pokemon TCG

Who is Scyther?

200

If the coding strand of DNA being transcribed is ATTCGC

What is AUUCGC?

200

The ribosome takes this molecule and uses it to determine the order that the amino acids go in to create a protein

What is the mRNA?

200

This enzyme repairs the okazaki fragments

What is ligase?

200

Bases in both DNA and RNA are connected by this

What is the sugar-phosphate backbone?

200

All of her sisters were authors, but she was probably the most famous for writing Wuthering Heights, a pseudo ghost story about an incredibly dysfunctional English family, adopted siblings that are in love with each other, and a gun that is also a knife. 8/10 could have used more ghosts.

Who is Emily Bronte?

300

If the template strand of DNA being transcribed is ATTCGC, what will the RNA be?

What is UAAGCG?

300

If an mRNA has a codon of UUA, this is what the codon on tRNA would be

What is AAU?

300

DNA polymerase must move in this direction during replication

What is 5' to 3'?

300

Changes in DNA where a single nucleotide is replaced with another are called this

What is a point mutation?

300

From starring as the dad in Matilda, to working with The Terminator himself in Twins, to playing the penguin in Batman Returns, this short king has had quite the career in movies. But people might know him best for offering a fictional resident of Philadelphia "an egg in this trying time."

Who is Danny Devito?

400

After creating the RNA strand, these parts must be spliced out

What are introns?

400
This nucleotide would never be found in tRNA

What is thymine?

400

Errors made in replication are called this

What are mutations?

400

Adding or deleting a nucleotide are examples of this kind of change in DNA

What is a frame shift?

400

This left handed shooting guard helped the San Antonio Spurs win a four titles and Argentina's "golden generation" be the only team to eliminate the US from Olympic basketball competition since the 90's.

Who is Manu Ginobli?
500

Alternative splicing allows for a single gene to create multiple of these types of molecules

What are proteins?

500

An error that replaced a U with a G during transcription would show up this way in translation

An amino acid would be different in the protein being produced

500

Because the end results of replication have a new strand of DNA and an old strand of DNA, replication is referred to as this

What is semi-conservative?

500

This is the reason that RNA tends to mutate more than DNA

What is that Uracil is more reactive/less stable than Thymine?

500

This French composer is most famous for his Gymnopedie No. 1 which you've heard in so many commercials and for the music for the ballet Parade.
