What is an exact copy of itself
100
a) process of reducing the RNA from the DNA gene b) the building of a protein
What is a) transcription b) translation
200
Carries an amino acid to the ribosome.
What is tRNA
200
Nitrogen bases in a) DNA b) RNA
What is a) adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine b) adenine, uracil, cytosine, and guanine
200
The "back-bone" of DNA
What is sugar/phosphate
200
The enzyme that breaks the hydrogen bonds between the Nitrogen bases and "unzip" the DNA into two section.
What is DNA helicase
200
The enzyme required in order for the DNA gene to open up and the RNA to bind to the DNA.
What is DNA polymerase.
300
It is found within the ribosome; function unknown.
What is rRNA
300
Double stranded with a "double helix" shape
What is DNA
300
The Nitrogen bases in DNA
What are adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C), and guanine (G)
300
This joins the nucleotides with their complementary base pairs (A & T, C & G).
What is DNA polymerase
300
The links in long chains of amino acids
What are peptide bonds (polypeptides)
400
The three nitrogen bases of a tRNA
What anticodons
400
Single stranded
What is RNA
400
Sugar, phosphate, and one nitrogen base
What is a nucleotide
400

What is a) mutation b) mutogen
400
64 different of these combinations code 20 amino acids
What is 3-base
500
The top part of a tRNA.
What is an amino acid?
500
Match to complimentary pair: RNA- A goes to C, U, G, T, or A G goes to C, U, G, T, or A DNA- C goes to C, U, G, T, or A T goes to C, U, G, T, or A
What is A-U (U-A), G-C (C-G); C-G (G-C), T-A (A-T) RNA: Au is chemical symbol for gold CG means computer graphics DNA: CG is the same thing "at" is an English word

Year DNA was discovered.
What is 1953 (very improbable test question)
500
This is the place in between the two halves of DNA where the two halves are pulling apart.
What is a replication fork
500
This 3-base combination is the universal "start" codon.
What is AUG
