DNA Structure
Central Dogma
Lesser known Organelles
100
This organelle contains the DNA of the cell.
What is the nucleus?
100
This is a section of a DNA molecule.
What is a gene?
100
This is what the "D" stands for in DNA.
What is "deoxyribose?"
100
This is the process of changing the code from DNA to mRNA.
What is transcription?
100
This organelle breaks down wastes in the cell.
What is the lysosome?
200
These organelles produce proteins for the cell.
What are the ribosomes.
200
In the cell, DNA is wrapped up into these large structures.
What are chromosomes?
200
These determine which nitrogen bases will pair together.
What are the number of hydrogen bonds?
200
This is the site of translation in the cell.
What is the ribosome?
200
This organelle is where lipids are produced.
What is the smooth ER (endoplasmic reticulum)?
300
This outer layer of a cell can be found in both plant cells and animal cells.
What is the cell membrane?
300
These rules help us to find the complementary DNA sequence.
What is A --> T T --> A C --> G G --> C
300
These are the three parts of a nucleotide.
What are the 5-carbon sugar, phosphate, and nitrogen base?
300
These are the rules for changing DNA to mRNA.
What are A-->U T-->A C-->G G-->C
300
This organelle packages and distributes proteins to other parts of the body.
What is the Golgi Complex?
400
This organelle is where you fill find ribosomes.
What is the rough ER (endoplasmic reticulum)?
400
These make up the "rungs" of the DNA ladder.
What are bases?
400
This is characterized by the presence of two rings in its structure.
What is a purine?
400
The process for converting RNA into protein.
What is translation?
400
This organelle provides movement for prokaryotic cells.
What is the flagella?
500
These two organelles both have to do with ENERGY in the cell.
What are the mitochondria and chloroplasts?
500
DNA is the instructions to build these molecules.
What are proteins?
500
The phosphate group attaches to the deoxyribose in these two spots.
What are the 3' and 5' positions?
500
This is what you call three RNA bases in a row.
What is a codon?
500
This is the function of the pili in prokaryotic cells.
What is transfer of genetic material (plasmids)?
