What is the effect of adding or removing one base in a DNA sequence?
300
DNA is _____ stranded.
What is double stranded?
300
This is what mRNA does.
What is carries instructions for making proteins from nucleus to ribosomes in the cytoplasm.
300
RNA molecules are _______ to the DNA sequence in genes.
What is complimentary?
300
After transcription mRNA leaves the nucleus and translation occurs here.
What is cytoplasm more specifically in the Ribosomes?
300
This is the method used to read the genetic code table.
What is the method to read the codon ACG? Read A from the left-hand side of the table. Read C across the top of the table Read G as the fourth line in that block, on the right-hand side of the table The codon ACG codes for the amino acid threonine.
400
In RNA, this nitrogenous base in is place of thymine.
What is Uracil?
400
This is what rRNA does.
What is, forms an important park of both subunits of the ribosome.
400
Transcription occurs here.
What is in the nucleus?
400
Each tRNA molecule carries just one kind of amino acid. Each tRNA molecule also has three unpaired bases. This set of bases is called the _____. Each tRNA _____ is complimentary to one mRNA codon.
What is anticodon?
400
This idea makes substitution mutations less effective/harmful.
What is the effect of having multiple codons specify the same amino acid? In your group elaborate on this idea. Provide an example.
500
The cell's "______" is it's DNA, which it uses to prepare RNA "______" for protein synthesis.
What is "master plan" & "blueprints"?
500
This is from which molecules RNA molecules are transcribed.
What is DNA molecules?
500
This is how a cell makes RNA.
What is a segment of DNA acts as a template to make complimentary RNA molecules.
500
This is the correct sequence of transfer information in most organisms.
What is DNA to RNA to Proteins?
500
Not all mutations are the same. Some mutations such as _______ shift the "reading frame" of a genetic message by inserting or deleting a nucleotide. Other mutations such as ________ change one nucleotide and do not affect the "reading frame".
What is Frameshift Mutations & Substitutions?
