By pilfering on the experiments of others, these two scientists found out the structure of DNA. (Last names only)
Who are Watson and Crick?
100
The genetic material
What is DNA?
200
THe DNA sequence that the RNA polymerase attaches to
What is the promoter?
200
Synthesis of RNA under direction of DNA
What is Transcription?
200
True or false. In eukaryotes there can only be one site where replication begins.
What is False?
200
Through experimentation, scientists discovered that in DNA ___________ always pairs with thymine and __________ always pairs with cytosine.
What is adenine and guanine?
200
Two scientists discovered this Model for DNA's shape. This model is still used to this day.
What is the double-helical model?
300
The complete assembly that occurs during the first phase of transcription is called
What is the transcription initiation complex?
300
the genetic code is made up of triplets of nucleotides called this.
What are codons?
300
New DNA elongates at this location, located at the end of each replication strand.
What is a replication fork?
300
Through experimentation it was discovered that the base composition of DNA caries between species and in any species the numbers of A and T bases are equal and the number of G and C bases are equal. These two rules collectively are known as _____________.
What are Chagraff's rules?
300
DNA is made out of this monomer.
What are nucleotides?
400
when enzymes modify mRNA after transcription it is called this
What is RNA processing?
400
a complex of DNA and protein that condenses prior to mitosis.
What is chromatin?
400
The three models of replication
What is conservative, semi-conservative, and dispersive?
400
These two scientists proved that DNA forms a hybrid during replication.
who are Methelson and Stahl?
400
The purine bases in nucleotides
What are Adenine and guanine?
500
the removal of noncoding regions of nucleotides known as ______________, is called ______________
What are introns and RNA splicing?
500
The type of protein that is modified throughout the cell cycle that results in changes in the organization of DNA
What are histones?
500
Wheen the lagging strand is created it creates these, because it is discontinuously synthesized.
What are okazaki fragments?
500
These two scientists showed that DNA is the genetic material of T2 phage.
